How to Convert PDF to Word (Free, In Your Browser)

Extract a PDF's text into an editable Word .docx privately — no uploads, no signup. Works on text-based PDFs; here's how.

Got a PDF you need to edit? Instead of retyping it — or uploading it to a converter — you can pull the text into an editable Word document right in your browser.

Convert in 3 steps

  1. Open the PDF to Word tool and drop in your PDF.
  2. Click "Convert to Word" — a progress bar shows the text being extracted page by page.
  3. Download the .docx and open it in Word, Google Docs or any editor.

Extraction happens locally with pdf.js — your file is never uploaded. The result is a real, editable .docx, not a picture of the pages.

Good to know

  • This recovers the editable text — not the exact layout. Columns, precise spacing and styling aren't reconstructed.
  • It's ideal when you want the words in an editable form to update or reuse.
  • Scanned PDFs (just images of pages) have no text to extract — use the Image to Text (OCR) tool for those instead.
