The process

Complete it in three steps

  2. 2

    Upload the DOC or DOCX file

    Open Word to PDF, choose one DOC or DOCX file up to 10 MB, and start the server conversion.

  3. 3

    Inspect the finished PDF

    Download the PDF and compare headings, tables, images, headers, footers, and page count with the Word source.

Common questions

Should I use DOC or DOCX?

DOCX is the more reliable choice for modern documents, although the converter also accepts older DOC files.

Why can page breaks change in the PDF?

Font availability, margins, and layout interpretation can change line wrapping and move content onto a different page.

How can I reduce font substitutions?

Prefer widely available fonts or embed fonts in the source document when your editor supports it.

Can the service open a password-protected Word file?

No. Remove the Office document password before starting the conversion.
