PDF to Word Conversion — Complete Guide

Need to edit a PDF but don't have the original Word file? Convert PDF to DOCX and edit freely. Our tool handles both text-based and scanned PDFs.

Standard PDF to Word

For PDFs created from digital sources (Word, Google Docs, web export), the conversion is straightforward. Text, tables, and images are extracted and placed in a DOCX file with formatting preserved.

PDF to Word with OCR (Scanned PDFs)

Scanned documents are images, not text. Our OCR (Optical Character Recognition) option converts scanned text into editable Word content. It recognizes text in the image and creates an editable document.

What Preserves Well

• Text formatting (bold, italic, underline)
• Font sizes and styles
• Table structures
• Basic layouts
• Hyperlinks

How to Convert

1. Go to PDF Tools
2. Choose "PDF to Word" or "OCR PDF to Word"
3. Upload your PDF
4. Wait for conversion (OCR takes longer)
5. Download your DOCX file
