Free Online PDF Converter

PDF Converter gathers every tool for moving a document between PDF and another format. Go from PDF to Word, Excel, JPG or PNG, or the other way — Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, HTML, text, Markdown and CSV into PDF. Each conversion runs inside your browser, so the file you are converting is never uploaded to a server.

Conversions are not all equal, and each tool says plainly what it keeps and what it drops. Word to PDF, for example, carries over text but not images or tables, while PDF to Word offers a reflowed mode and a layout-preserving mode. Pick the tool that matches the job and read its notes before relying on the result.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Got questions? We've got answers.

Which formats can I convert to and from PDF?

From PDF: Word, Excel, JPG and PNG. Into PDF: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images (JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and BMP, plus iPhone HEIC photos), HTML, plain text, Markdown and CSV.

Will formatting survive the conversion?

It depends on the tool. Text is carried over, but layout details such as images, tables and custom fonts are not always reproduced. Each tool page lists what is and isn't preserved, so check it before converting an important document.

Are my files uploaded when I use these tools?

No. Every tool here runs in your browser, so the file is processed on your device and is never sent to a SmilingPDF server. Only anonymous usage counts — which tool was used, never what was in it — leave the page.

Can I convert a scanned PDF?

A scan is a picture of text rather than text itself, so tools that read text — PDF to Word and PDF to Excel — need the scan run through OCR first. OCR PDF is in the PDF Extractor group.
