Tools › PDF to Word

Convert a PDF to an editable Word file

Scrivia reads the text from each page of your PDF and puts it into a Word document you can edit. It works best on PDFs that contain real text, such as exported reports and letters.

Open PDF to Word
Opens in Scrivia. No sign-up needed for the free tools.

How it works

  1. Open the PDF to Word tool and choose your PDF.
  2. Run the conversion and wait while each page is read.
  3. Download the Word file and edit the text.

What to know

Good to know: This is a text extraction. Images, tables and complex page layouts are not reproduced, and scanned PDFs without a text layer will not produce usable text.

Frequently asked questions

Will my formatting and images carry over?

No. Scrivia extracts the text. Images, tables and detailed layout are not reproduced, so expect to tidy the result in Word.

Does it work on scanned PDFs?

Not reliably. Scans are pictures of pages without a text layer, and Scrivia does not perform OCR.

Is PDF to Word free?

Yes, it is part of the free plan.

Is my file uploaded?

No. The conversion runs locally in your browser.
