Can I open and edit the converted file in Microsoft Word and Google Docs?

Yes. The converted file is a standard OpenXML (.docx) file fully compatible with Microsoft Word, Google Docs, LibreOffice, and Apple Pages.

Does this converter work on scanned PDFs and images of text?

Digital PDFs containing searchable text convert directly. For scanned paper documents or photographed contracts, use our OCR PDF tool to extract the text using optical character recognition.

Will my confidential contracts or CVs stay private?

Absolutely. Unlike traditional online converters that upload your files to external cloud servers, Convertiva reconstructs your document entirely inside your web browser memory. Nothing is ever transmitted across the internet.

Privacy Protection100% In-Browser · Never uploaded

This converter extracts the text of your PDF and rebuilds it as a real, editable .docx file you can open in Microsoft Word, Google Docs or LibreOffice. Because the work happens in your browser, contracts, CVs and reports never touch a server.

Edit a contract or report you only have as a PDF
Recover text from a document whose original Word file is lost
Reuse paragraphs from a PDF without retyping them

Digital PDFs with a text layer convert well. Scanned PDFs are photographs of text — they contain no extractable characters, so they will produce an empty result. Complex multi-column layouts and tables are simplified into flowing text.
