PDF to Word
Extract text from a PDF into an editable .docx using PDF.js. Editable result, local processing.
How to use this tool
- Drop a PDF.
- Click Convert.
- Download the .docx file.
- Open and edit in Word.
How it works
PDF.js extracts text lines and word positions from each page and the docx builder writes them as paragraphs in a Word file (Office Open XML, zipped with fflate).
Tips
- Works best with text-based PDFs rather than scans.
- Tables and multi-column layouts may need manual re-flow.
Limitations
Layout fidelity is approximate — the goal is editable text, not pixel-perfect recreation.
Frequently asked questions
Is the result really editable?
Yes — a real .docx is generated containing the extracted text with basic paragraph structure.
Are images included?
Text is the main output; layout and graphics are not perfectly preserved. Complex designs need checking.
Is OCR performed?
No — only embedded text is extracted. Scanned PDFs require OCR, which isn't performed here.
