How it works
Upload a PDF. The file is stored privately in cloud storage, converted in an isolated container with PyMuPDF, python-docx, and optional OCR, then offered as a short-lived Word (.docx) download. Source and output files are deleted automatically. Best for text-based PDFs—complex layouts may change.
Limitations
Conversion runs on our secure PDF service (PyMuPDF, python-docx, optional OCR). Your file is uploaded privately, processed in an isolated container, and deleted automatically. Best for text-based PDFs—complex layouts may change. Review the Word file before relying on it.
