Word to PDF online, free

Convert a Word DOCX document to PDF when colleagues need a file they can read without editing the original. Text converts well, but this is a best-effort reconstruction through HTML, so intricate tables, pagination and floating objects can move.

Good for: sharing draft contracts for review, sending a resume without editable source, printing simple word handouts.

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert old .doc files?

This converter accepts DOCX, not the older binary DOC format. Save the .doc file as .docx in a word processor first.

Will the PDF look exactly like Word?

Not always. The converter extracts DOCX content with Mammoth and prints it through Chromium; floating shapes, elaborate tables and precise page breaks can change.

Is there a free file size limit?

Guests can upload files up to 25 MB each. A free account raises the limit to 50 MB per file, and Premium allows 500 MB per file with larger batches.

Can I edit the result?

The result is a PDF for viewing and sharing, not an editable Word document. Keep the original DOCX for revisions or use PDF to Word for an approximate reverse conversion.

Are my Word documents private?

Uploads are encrypted in transit and automatically deleted after a short time following processing.

Does it work on Mac, Windows or iPhone?

Yes. Use a modern browser to upload a DOCX and download the PDF; no desktop installation is required.
