Convert a PDF to Word

Last updated: 2 October 2026

Use PDF to Word to turn a PDF into an editable Word document. The conversion keeps the layout and structure of the original, including automatic numbering, complex tables and two-column formatting, so it works well for contracts, policies, scanned agreements and other structured documents.

You can convert a PDF in the Word add-in or in the browser.
