Word to PDF

Convert Word documents (.docx) to PDF, keeping headings, formatting, lists, tables and pictures.

Using this tool is free. Each download or copy of a result uses 1 export; the same result again within 24 hours is free.

Convert Word documents to PDF

Word to PDF turns a .docx file into a PDF with selectable text, keeping its headings, bold, italic and underlined text, bullet and numbered lists, tables, links and pictures. Choose the paper size, orientation, margins and page numbers.

The document is converted in your browser, so it isn’t uploaded. Word-specific layout such as fonts, columns, text boxes and Word headers isn’t copied exactly; for an identical copy use “Save as PDF” in Word. To change the text first, open the file in our WordPad to PDF editor.

Privacy and price

Your PDFs are processed by your own browser (using the open-source pdf-lib and PDF.js libraries), so they’re never uploaded to us or anyone else, and nothing is kept after you close the page. Trying the tool is free; each download uses 1 export (one PDF or one ZIP), and downloading the same result again within 24 hours is free. See pricing.

Questions about this tool

Is the Word to PDF free?

Using it and previewing the result are free. Downloading, copying or saving the final result uses 1 export: from £1.00 for 5, or included in a monthly plan. The same result again within 24 hours is free.

Does the PDF keep my formatting?

Headings, bold, italic, underline, lists, tables, links and pictures are kept. Fonts, columns, text boxes and headers or footers set in Word are replaced with clean defaults, so the layout won’t be identical. For a perfect copy, use “Save as PDF” in Word itself.

Can I convert old .doc files?

Not directly. Open the file in Word, LibreOffice or Google Docs, save it as .docx, then convert it.

Is my information uploaded?

No. It works entirely in your browser, so your text and files stay on your device.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. It works in any modern browser on phones, tablets and computers, with nothing to install.
