The text layer is extracted in your browser and saved as .docx.
This keeps the words, not the layout. Complex columns, tables and images are not carried across, and scanned PDFs have no text to extract.
Extracts the text layer of a PDF and saves it as an editable .docx. Best for text documents; it keeps the words and paragraph breaks but not columns, tables or images. Scanned PDFs contain no text layer, so they need OCR instead.
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about the pdf to word.

A scan is a picture of text, not text. There is no text layer to extract - it needs OCR software, which this tool does not include.
