Convert PDF to Word - Editable .docx in Seconds

This free PDF to Word converter lets you turn any PDF file into an editable Microsoft Word document (.docx). Recover text, layout, images, and tables from locked or uneditable PDF files - instantly. Our converter is fast, secure, and supports both single and batch uploads with optional file name prefixing.

Why Convert PDF to Word?

PDFs are designed for final formatting - not editing. While they preserve layout, they are hard to update, annotate, or repurpose. By converting a PDF into Word format, you can:

  • Edit the text directly in Word or Google Docs
  • Update reports, resumes, or contracts without retyping
  • Reuse layout, fonts, and spacing for a new version
  • Fix typos, translate, or reformat content

It's the perfect solution when you need to gain editing control over a document that was originally intended for sharing or printing only.

Batch PDF to Word Conversion + Name Prefix

Upload one or multiple PDF files. Each will be converted into a corresponding Word file. If you upload multiple files, the outputs are packed in a ZIP archive. Use the file name prefix field to label your converted files (e.g., "project2025"), resulting in project2025_1.docx, project2025_2.docx, and so on. This makes asset management easier for teachers, businesses, and agencies converting documents in bulk.

What Will Be Preserved?

  • Text formatting: bold, italic, font size
  • Paragraphs and line spacing
  • Images, tables, headers, and footers
  • Page breaks and document structure

Our conversion engine prioritizes clarity and structure. While some extremely complex or scanned PDFs may require formatting touch-ups post-conversion, most layouts are transferred with high accuracy.

Top Use Cases

Mobile and Desktop Ready

This tool works seamlessly on Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows. Upload PDFs from your phone, convert instantly, and open Word documents in mobile editing apps like Google Docs, Office Mobile, or WPS Office. The layout adapts to all screen sizes, making it perfect for working on the go.

Who Should Use This Tool?

  • Students editing teacher-provided reading PDFs
  • Freelancers revising invoices or service documents
  • Human resources teams editing onboarding documents
  • Translators extracting text from digital source files
  • Researchers compiling editable sources from academic PDF papers

What About Scanned PDFs?

This tool is built for native PDFs (with selectable text). It does not currently support OCR (Optical Character Recognition). Scanned PDFs will convert as images inside the Word file. If you need editable text from scans, try third-party OCR software or save the PDF in Google Drive and use Google Docs OCR.

Security and Privacy

All files are transferred over secure HTTPS connections. No content is logged, scanned, stored, or shared. Converted files are deleted from our server automatically after processing. We do not watermark or track your documents. The service is ad-supported, lightweight, and designed for fast, secure file handling with complete privacy.

FAQs

Will I lose formatting?
No. Most standard formatting (fonts, headers, spacing, tables) is preserved. Some PDFs with advanced structure may need slight adjustments.

Can I convert multiple files?
Yes. Upload one or more PDFs. The output files will be packed in a downloadable ZIP archive with optional prefix labeling.

What happens to images and charts?
They are embedded in the converted Word document in the same position as in the PDF.

Is this free?
Yes. Like all Pro Edit Tools, this converter is completely free - no limits, registration, or watermark.

What software can open the Word file?
Microsoft Word, Google Docs, LibreOffice, WPS Office, and most text editors that support .docx.

Can I convert forms or contracts?
Yes. Legal documents are often easier to edit once converted to Word, especially when you need to fill or modify pre-existing terms.

What if my PDF is password-protected?
Password-protected files cannot be converted unless unlocked first. Please remove protection before uploading.
