The tool extracts selectable text from a PDF and saves it as an editable DOCX document. Check the Word file after conversion: images, columns, tables, and complex layouts may need to be rebuilt.
Try selecting a sentence in the original PDF first. If you can highlight and copy the words, this tool can usually extract that text. A scanned image needs OCR before text extraction.
Common questions
Will this work with a scanned PDF?
A scan is usually an image, so its text must be recognized with OCR before this tool can extract it.
Will the Word file look exactly like the PDF?
No. The result is intended for editing the text. It may not preserve the PDF’s original visual layout.
