Turn a Word .docx into a PDF in your browser, with real selectable text rather than pictures of pages. Headings, paragraphs, bold, italic and underline, alignment, bullet and numbered lists, simple tables and inline images are laid out on clean pages, and the file never leaves your device.
How it works
- Drop one or more .docx files. Each one is listed with the direction it will convert in.
- Pick the page size: as set in the document, A4, or US Letter.
- Press Convert to PDF and download it; several files arrive as one ZIP.
Questions
- Does my file get uploaded?
- No. Everything happens inside your browser on your own device. You can check it yourself: open your browser’s DevTools, watch the Network tab while the tool runs, and you will see no upload. The badge beside the page title counts the bytes this page has sent, live.
- Will the PDF look exactly like the document does in Word?
- It keeps the content and its structure, not every detail of the layout. Text, headings, lists, tables and images come across in order, set in the standard PDF fonts (Helvetica, Times or Courier, matched to the document’s font). Headers, footers, footnotes, text columns, wrapping around pictures, colours and charts are left out, and the result line lists what was. For a pixel-exact copy, use Word’s own Save as PDF.
- Which files and languages work?
- Word .docx files from Word 2007 onwards, and .docx exports from Google Docs, Pages and LibreOffice. Old binary .doc files do not: open them in Word and save as .docx first. Text must be in a Western European language, because the standard PDF fonts only cover that character set; a document in Polish, Czech, Greek, Russian, Arabic or an Asian script is refused with a message rather than printed with missing letters.
