Common questions
Is PDF to Word free?
Yes, within the free daily allowance. Paid plans raise the limits for heavy use.
Will the formatting survive?
Text documents convert very cleanly. Heavily designed layouts may need small tidy-ups afterwards.
Can I convert a scanned PDF?
A scan is an image, so the converted document contains the picture rather than editable text. Layers does not run text recognition.
Are my documents kept?
No. Files that need a server are deleted as soon as you download the result.
