About this tool
A .docx file is a ZIP of XML files. The tool reads the text, styles, lists, tables and pictures directly in your browser and lays them out as PDF pages with standard fonts, so no document leaves your device.
Good to know: The layout is close to Word's but not identical. Headers, footers, page numbers, text boxes, shapes, footnotes, tracked changes and exact fonts are not reproduced. Letters outside the Latin alphabet, such as Urdu, Arabic and Chinese, cannot be drawn and appear as a question mark. Only .docx is supported, not the older .doc.
Free to use. Your inputs are processed in your browser and are not sent to our servers. Results are for general information; see the disclaimer.
Frequently asked questions
Will my document look exactly the same?
It will be close, especially for text, headings, lists and tables, but fonts and spacing may differ slightly. For a pixel-exact copy, use Save as PDF in Word itself.
Can I convert Urdu or Arabic documents?
Not with this tool, because it uses standard PDF fonts that only cover the Latin alphabet. In Word, use File, Save As, PDF for documents in other scripts.
Is my document uploaded?
No. It is read and converted in your browser, and nothing is sent to our servers.
