Convert PDF files to editable DOCX documents, reconstructing text and layout for use in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice.

Files expire after one hour and are automatically deleted.

A PDF is great for sharing a finished document, but painful to edit — there's no way to fix a typo or update a clause without the source file. Converting back to an editable Word document is the usual workaround, and the quality of that conversion depends entirely on how well the layout, fonts, and tables survive the round trip.

pdfhubb's PDF to Word converter reconstructs your document as a standard .docx file, keeping paragraphs, tables, and images in place so you can pick up editing in Microsoft Word or Google Docs without rebuilding the layout from scratch.

    Upload your file

    Drag and drop your PDF, or use "Choose Files" to browse your device. Nothing leaves your session until you start processing.

    Adjust the settings for this tool — order, ranges, quality, or text — directly in the panel below the file list.

  3. 3

    Convert your PDF

    Click the action button to start. Most files finish in a few seconds; larger documents may take a little longer.

  4. 4

    Download your file

Text and layout are reconstructed as closely as possible, though fonts, tables, and complex page designs may need manual touch-ups.
