Will my PDF's exact layout be preserved?
No — this extracts text into a normal flowing Word document. Tables, multi-column layouts, and precisely positioned text will not match the original exactly.
Does this work on scanned PDFs?
No, this reads existing text in the PDF — a scanned image-only PDF has no text to extract. Run it through our PDF OCR tool first, then convert.
Is the output actually editable?
Yes, the download is a real .docx file that opens directly in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice.
