Is this PDF to Word converter free and private?

Yes. It is free with no sign-up, and it runs entirely in your browser — the PDF is never uploaded, so it stays private on your device.

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

No. It extracts real text from digital PDFs. Scanned pages are images with no text layer, so they need OCR, which this tool does not perform.

Will it keep images and exact layout?

No. It recovers the editable text so you can reuse it in Word, but images, columns and precise positioning are not preserved. You get clean, editable text you can reformat.

How it works

The tool opens your PDF in the browser and reads the text layer page by page, keeping line and paragraph breaks where it can. The extracted text appears in an editable box so you can tidy it up, then it's packaged into a .doc file that opens in Microsoft Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice. Everything happens locally, so your PDF is never uploaded.

Works on digital, text-based PDFs. Scanned documents are images and need OCR, which this tool does not do. Images, columns and exact layout are not carried over — you get clean, editable text.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my scanned PDF coming out blank?

A scan is a picture of a page with no underlying text, so there is nothing to extract. You'd need an OCR tool to recognise the text first.

Can I edit before downloading?

Yes — the text box is fully editable. Fix any spacing or breaks, then download.
