What is PDF?
Portable Document Format

It uses PostScript language and can contain text, images, vector graphics, and interactive elements. PDFs maintain consistent appearance regardless of the software, hardware, or operating system used to view them.

- Widely supported across all devices
What is DOCX?

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the formatting stay intact when converting PDF to DOCX?
Mostly yes for text-based PDFs. Text, fonts, headings, and basic formatting are preserved well. Complex layouts (multi-column, text boxes, images) may need minor adjustments. Note: Scanned PDFs (images) require OCR and results are limited.
Can I edit a scanned PDF after converting to DOCX?
Limited. Scanned PDFs are essentially images and require OCR (Optical Character Recognition) to extract text. Basic OCR is available, but results may vary. For best results, use text-based PDFs rather than scanned documents.
Why is my converted DOCX different from the original PDF?
PDFs are fixed-layout documents, while DOCX is flow-based. Elements like headers, footers, page breaks, and text boxes may shift. For best results, use PDFs created from Word (not scanned documents).
Can I convert password-protected PDFs to DOCX?
Only if you have the password. Upload the PDF, enter the password when prompted, and we'll decrypt and convert it. We cannot bypass password protection (that would be illegal).
What happens to images and tables in the PDF?
Images are extracted and embedded in the DOCX. Tables are converted to Word tables. Simple tables work perfectly. Complex tables with merged cells or nested structures may need manual adjustment.
