PDF to Word (DOCX) Converter

Convert any PDF into a genuine Word .docx file. The converter analyses the geometry of every line to preserve text alignment (left, centered, right), headings, font sizes, bold/italic styling and page breaks — producing a document that mirrors the original layout and edits cleanly in Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice.

About this PDF to Word (DOCX) Converter

Unlike naive converters that dump plain text, this tool reads the exact position, width and font size of every piece of text on each PDF page, then rebuilds the document structure: lines are re-assembled from glyph runs, paragraphs are detected from line spacing, alignment is computed from each paragraph's left/right margins, and larger text becomes real Word headings. The output is a genuine Office Open XML .docx (not renamed HTML), generated entirely in your browser, so it opens flawlessly in Microsoft Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice — and your document never leaves your device. A legacy .doc download is also available for very old Word versions.

Note: complex multi-column layouts and tables are linearized, and images are not carried over (use PDF to JPG for visuals). For scanned PDFs, run OCR first — scans contain pictures of text, not text.

Frequently asked questions

How is alignment preserved?
The converter measures each paragraph’s left and right margins against the page width: symmetric margins become centered text, a flush right edge becomes right-aligned, everything else stays left-aligned — matching the visual layout of the original.
Is this a real .docx file?
Yes — a genuine Office Open XML document with real Word paragraphs, heading styles, run formatting and page breaks, built with the docx library. It is not HTML with a renamed extension.
My scanned PDF converts to an empty file — why?
Scans contain images of text, not actual text. Run OCR on the scan first (many scanner apps include it), then convert.
