Processed locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
How the Word to PDF Converter works
- Your .docx file is a ZIP archive — the tool unpacks it in the browser to find the internal document XML.
- Text is extracted from the XML by reading paragraph and text-run elements in order.
- Each paragraph is laid out in a new PDF with automatic text wrapping and page breaks, using the jsPDF library.
- The result is a standard .pdf file ready to download and share.
Useful tips
- Save .doc files as .docx in Word first — the legacy binary format isn't supported.
- Documents with only text convert cleanly; images and tables won't be carried over.
- The output is a clean text PDF, so expect to re-apply any complex layout if needed.
Frequently asked questions
Is my Word document sent to a server?+
No. The entire conversion runs in your browser using JavaScript. Your file is never uploaded to any server, so it is safe to convert sensitive documents.
Does it support .doc files?+
No — only the modern .docx format is supported. Legacy .doc files use a binary format that can't be parsed in the browser. Open your .doc file in Word and save it as .docx first, then upload the .docx version.
Does it preserve images, tables and formatting?+
Text content and paragraph structure are preserved. Complex layout elements like images, tables, custom fonts, colours, and exact positioning are not carried over — the focus is on giving you a clean, readable PDF of the text.
What file do I get?+
You get a standard .pdf file that opens in any PDF viewer — Adobe Reader, browser viewers, Preview on Mac, and any modern device.
