Convert PDF to Word (DOCX) locally — no upload, no signup
Turn a PDF into an editable .docx file using browser-based extraction. Fast, free, and private.
The privacy problem
The dominant PDF-to-Word converters upload your file to a server, queue it for a worker process, and email you the result. That's fine for a takeout menu — not for a salary letter.
The browser flow
The PDF to Word tool parses your PDF with pdf.js, extracts text blocks and basic styling, and packages them into a real .docx you can open in Word, Google Docs or Pages.
- Drop the PDF.
- Pick a target page range (or leave blank for all).
- Download the
.docx.
What works well
- Text-only or text-heavy PDFs.
- Reports and articles with simple layouts.
- Documents already produced from Word (round-trip is excellent).
Where to use a desktop tool instead
- PDFs with multi-column magazine layouts.
- Scanned PDFs (run OCR first to get any text at all).
- Forms with absolute-positioned fields.
For the 80% case, the browser is now the right place.
