How to Convert PDF to Word Online

Converting a PDF to Word can make text easier to edit. The best method depends on whether the original PDF contains selectable text or is made from scanned images.

Text PDFs vs scanned PDFs

A text PDF contains characters that software can usually extract. A scanned PDF may contain page images instead, which can require OCR for accurate text extraction.

Use PDF to Word

Try the PDF to Word tool when you need an editable document. After conversion, review headings, tables, page breaks and special characters.

Always review the result

Automated conversion can change formatting. Compare important figures, names and dates with the source PDF before using the converted document for official purposes.

Other useful conversions

If your goal is an image rather than an editable document, use PDF to JPG. For extracting readable text, see PDF to Text.
