One PDF converter for both directions
Most people need a PDF converter for one of two jobs: getting the content out of a PDF so they can edit it, or turning a finished document into a PDF that looks the same everywhere. Both directions are covered here, and each conversion has its own page with options tuned to that format.
Converting from PDF works best when the PDF contains real text, which is the case for files exported from Word, Excel or a web browser. Scanned pages are pictures of text, so run them through OCR PDF first, then convert the searchable result to Word or Excel.
Converting to PDF is the safer way to share a document: fonts, page size and layout are fixed, and the file opens the same way on any phone or computer. Word, Excel, PowerPoint, RTF, EPUB, plain text and images can all be turned into PDF.
Why your files stay on your computer
Every conversion on this page runs inside your browser. The PDF is read and written by your own device, so contracts, invoices and payslips are never uploaded to a server. There is no queue either: the speed depends on your device, and most documents are ready in seconds.
Questions and answers

Open PDF to Word, drop your PDF and download the DOCX file. The conversion runs in your browser, so there is no account, no watermark and no upload.
Can I convert a scanned PDF?
A scanned PDF contains pictures of pages, not text. Run it through OCR PDF first to add a text layer, then convert it to Word, Excel or plain text.
Which formats can I convert a PDF into?
Word (DOCX), Excel (XLSX), PowerPoint (PPTX), RTF, EPUB, plain text, JPG and PNG.
Which files can I turn into a PDF?
Word, Excel, PowerPoint, RTF, EPUB, text and Markdown files, plus images such as JPG, PNG, WEBP, HEIC and TIFF.
Will the converted file keep its layout?
Text, fonts, tables and images are kept as close to the original as possible. Very complex layouts may need small fixes afterwards, so keep the original file.
