No file yet. Add one to begin.
Limitations
- Only selectable text is converted, as plain paragraphs. Images, tables, columns, headers, footers and fonts are not reproduced.
- Paragraphs are guessed from line spacing, so some breaks may be wrong. Multi-column pages can come out in the wrong reading order.
- Scanned PDFs contain pictures of text, not text. They return an error because this tool does not do OCR.
- Each PDF page starts on a new Word page, but page layout will differ from the original.
