Options after selecting a fileFrequently asked questions
The details, when you need them.
Will images and complex tables be preserved?
This converter focuses on editable text and paragraph structure, not full layout reconstruction.
Can I convert a scanned document?
Run OCR PDF first, then convert the searchable result to Word.
Use it to recover text for editing
PDF stores the placement of content, not the same document structure as Word. This tool reconstructs text into a simpler editable document. It does not recreate a page-perfect layout with all original tables, images and columns. Check reading order and paragraph boundaries before revising or reusing the text.
Scanned PDFs need recognition first
If a file contains only pictures of text, run OCR PDF first and use that result as the input. Poor recognition will carry through to Word, so proofreading remains necessary. The converter can also struggle with unusual encodings or very short documents that do not contain enough extractable text.
Text reconstruction limits
Images, tables and complex layouts are not reconstructed faithfully; paragraph and heading detection is heuristic.
No text is found
The source may contain only scanned page images. Run OCR first and proofread before converting again.
