How to use the Word to PDF converter

  1. 1

    Drop a .docx file onto the upload area, or click it to choose one from your device.

  2. 2

    Check the filename and size shown once it's added.

  3. 3

    Click "Convert to PDF." This happens entirely in your browser — larger documents take a little longer.

  4. 4

    Once it's ready, click "Download PDF" to save the result.

Common uses

  • Sharing a resume or cover letter as a PDF
  • Submitting a report in a format that won't reflow on the reader's device
  • Archiving a document in a format that isn't tied to having Word installed
  • Sending a contract or proposal that shouldn't be easily edited

Supported formats and limitations

Accepts DOCX, up to one file at a time.

  • Only .docx is supported — legacy .doc files (pre-2007 binary format) can't be reliably parsed in a browser and are rejected rather than producing a broken result.
  • The output PDF preserves the document's visual layout, but the text is not selectable or searchable — it's rendered as an image, not real PDF text.
  • Headers, footers, footnotes, and complex layouts (multi-column text, embedded objects) are not preserved.

Frequently asked questions

No. The file is read and converted entirely in your browser using your device's own processing — it's never sent to a server.

No — only .docx (the modern Word format) is supported. There's no reliable way to parse the older binary .doc format in a browser, so it's rejected with a clear message rather than producing a broken PDF.

No. This converter renders your document's layout as an image and places it into the PDF, so the visual appearance is preserved but the text itself isn't selectable or searchable in the output file.

Yes, 20 MB — large enough for the vast majority of documents.

They aren't preserved. This converter handles standard body text well — headings, paragraphs, bold/italic, lists, simple tables, and inline images — but headers, footers, footnotes, and multi-column layouts are not supported.
