About this tool

PDFs are designed for viewing rather than editing. This tool reads the text layer of the document and rebuilds it as paragraphs inside a genuine Word file that opens in Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice.

Because only the text layer is used, scanned PDFs that contain pictures of text will not convert — there is nothing selectable to extract. Complex layouts, tables and images are not reproduced.
