How to Convert PDF to Word

  1. Select or drop your PDF. Add more with + Add more PDFs if you want several converted at once.
  2. Leave Read text from scanned pages on to turn scanned pages into editable text, or turn it off to keep them as pictures.
  3. Select Convert to Word file for a single PDF, or Convert to separate files (.zip) for one Word document per PDF.
  4. Download the editable .docx file and open it in Word or any app that reads Word documents.

What Comes Across

The converter rebuilds the text, tables and images of each page as editable Word content. Pages with an unusual layout can need some tidying afterwards, so check the result before you send it on.

Scanned pages are pictures, not text. With Read text from scanned pages on, only those pages are read with text recognition (OCR), so a PDF that already has real text converts just as quickly.

Is It Safe to Convert PDF to Word Online?

Conversion happens on Utiloot's server, so your PDFs are uploaded over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection. Working files are removed as soon as each conversion finishes, and nothing is kept. The Privacy Policy explains how files are handled.
