How it works

pdf.js reads the text content of each page, and the text is written into an HTML document with Word's MIME type so it opens directly in Microsoft Word as an editable .doc.

100% client-side — your files are processed in your browser and never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

Does it keep the exact layout?
It extracts the readable text into an editable Word document — ideal for reusing content. Complex multi-column layouts and images aren't reproduced exactly; for those, use PDF to JPG.
Does it work on scanned PDFs?
No — scanned PDFs are images with no text layer, so there's nothing to extract. This works on PDFs with real (selectable) text.
Is it uploaded?
No. Text is extracted locally with pdf.js and saved as a Word-openable file in your browser.
