What is PDF to Word?

PDFs are great for reading and awkward for editing. This tool rebuilds your PDF as an editable Word (.docx) document: larger text becomes bold headings, line gaps become paragraphs, pictures are copied into the document, and links become real clickable hyperlinks.

A preview of your PDF is shown first. Conversion runs in your browser, so your file is never uploaded. It works on PDFs with real text; for scans, run OCR PDF first.

How to use PDF to Word in 3 steps

1

Add your PDF

Drag it in or choose it from your device.

2

Wait a moment

Text, pictures and links are extracted page by page.

3

Open the .docx

The Word file downloads automatically.

Good to know: Text, pictures and links are kept. Multi-column layouts, tables and exact positioning are simplified.

When to use it

Use it to reuse text from a report, update an old contract or quote from a document. Expect clean, editable text with pictures in reading order, not a pixel-exact copy of complex layouts.

Tip: for tables, try PDF to Excel instead.

PDF to Word – frequently asked questions

Are pictures included?

Yes. Pictures are cropped from each page and inserted into the Word file in reading order.

Will columns, tables and exact layout be kept?

Not exactly. Text is rebuilt as headings and paragraphs; multi-column layouts and tables are simplified. Use PDF to Excel for tables.

Are links kept?

Yes. Web and email links in the PDF become clickable hyperlinks in Word.

Why did I get a 'no selectable text' message?

The PDF is probably a scan. Run it through OCR PDF first.

Is my file uploaded to a server?

No. PDF to Word runs in your browser, so the file stays on your device. Pagemint has no accounts and does not store your documents.

Is PDF to Word free?

Yes. PDF to Word is free to use, with no signup, no watermark and no daily limit.
