PDF to Word
Turn a PDF into an editable Word document you can open in Microsoft Word or Google Docs.
PDF to Word online, free and private
A PDF is designed to be read, not rewritten — which is exactly the problem when you need to fix a typo in a contract, reuse the wording of an old report, or hand a document to a colleague who works in Microsoft Word. Copy-pasting page by page is tedious and loses your paragraphs. The PDF to Word tool pulls the text straight out of your PDF and rebuilds it as an editable .docx file you can open in Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice.
The conversion runs entirely in your browser. Your PDF is read into memory, its text layer is extracted with pdf.js, and a fresh Word document is assembled on your device with nothing sent to a server. Sensitive letters, statements, and drafts never leave your computer, so there is no upload to worry about and no server copy left behind.
How to pdf to word in your browser
- 1
Add your PDF
Click ‘Select PDF file’ or drop a document onto the page. The tool reads the file locally — it is never uploaded — and gets it ready for conversion.
- 2
Convert to Word
Press ‘Convert to Word’. The text layer is extracted page by page and reassembled into paragraphs inside a brand-new .docx document, all in your browser.
- 3
Download the .docx
When it finishes, download the Word file and open it in Word, Google Docs, or any editor that reads .docx. From there the text is fully selectable and editable.
Why use PDFToolz for this
Nothing leaves your device
Because the PDF is parsed and the Word file is built with client-side JavaScript, your document is never transmitted. There is no server upload, no temporary cloud storage, and no copy to cache or leak — a genuine benefit for confidential and personal paperwork.
Editable text, not a picture
The tool reads the actual text layer of your PDF and writes it into real Word paragraphs, so the result is fully editable rather than a flat image of the page. You can search, restyle, and rewrite the content the moment you open it.
Free with no limits
Convert as many PDFs as you like with no account, no watermark, and no daily cap. The work happens on your hardware, so there is nothing to pay for and nothing to sign up to.
Fast and works offline
Conversion happens locally, so there is no upload wait and no round trip to a server. Once the page has loaded you can even disconnect from the internet and keep converting.
