Convert .docx documents to PDF, rendered locally

Only .docx is supported (for legacy .doc, save as .docx in Word first). Conversion happens locally; complex layouts may have minor deviations.
About this tool
You usually need a Word document turned into PDF when sending a resume, handing in an assignment or sharing a contract - something that must look identical on every device. This tool parses the structure and styling of your .docx with docx-preview in the browser, then rasterises it page by page at A4 proportions and writes a standard PDF, so text, images, tables and most of the layout survive the trip.
There is no need to install Microsoft Word and no need to upload the document anywhere: the file is read and rendered entirely in browser memory. That matters for resumes with personal details and contracts with commercial terms.
Features
- Works with .docx directly - no Word install and no browser plugins
- Paginated to standard A4, matching print proportions

- Your document stays on your device: zero uploads, no signup, no watermark
How to use

- Wait for the progress indicator; the final page count is shown when done
- Click download to get a .pdf named after your original document
Frequently asked questions
- Why is .doc not supported?
- The .doc format is the proprietary binary format from Word 97-2003 and has no reliable browser-side parser. Open the file in Word or WPS, save it as .docx, then convert it here.
- How do I keep the Word formatting when converting to PDF?
- The tool renders your .docx structure and styling first and then writes the output, so body text, headings, lists, images and regular tables keep their layout. Elements that rely on unusual fonts or complex text boxes can shift slightly - give layout-critical documents a page-by-page check; text-heavy files are usually indistinguishable.
- Why are there blank pages or blurry images in the result?
- Blank pages usually come from invisible page breaks or empty paragraphs in the original document - delete the extra lines and convert again. Blurry images happen because pages are rasterised: if the source picture lacks resolution, conversion cannot invent detail. Use a higher-resolution original in Word for the best result.
- Do I need an account or membership to convert Word to PDF?
- No. The tool is free with no membership and no usage limits, and the output carries no watermark. Everything runs in your browser - there is no backend to log into.
- Can I still select and copy text in the resulting PDF?
- No. This converter rasterises each page for maximum visual fidelity, which means the output does not depend on fonts but the text is not selectable. Run the PDF through OCR if you need a searchable document.
- Is my file uploaded? Is it slow for big documents?
- Nothing is uploaded - everything runs locally. Speed depends on page count and device performance; a few dozen pages typically takes tens of seconds. Keep the tab open and in the foreground while it works.
