ConvertWhat happens when you convert DOCX to PDF
- DOCX is another name for Word; files ending in .docx work here.
- Headings, paragraphs, bold and italic text, lists, tables, links and images carry over.
- Fonts, colors, page layout, headers, footers and comments aren't copied: the new file uses clean, standard styling.
- Line and page breaks can differ from Word, because the PDF uses standard fonts. For an exact copy of the layout, use Save as PDF in Word itself.
- The PDF has A4 or Letter pages with real, selectable text, clickable links and bookmarks for the chapters.

Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to convert my files here?
Yes. Conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to a server, so nobody else can see them.
Is it free? Are there limits?
It's completely free, with no sign-up, watermarks or daily limits. The only limit is your device's memory for very large files.
Can I convert many DOCX files at once?
Yes. Drop as many files as you like; they're converted one after another and you can download them all as a ZIP.
Will the PDF look exactly like my Word document?
Close, but not identical: text, headings, lists, tables and images are laid out cleanly with standard fonts, so lines and pages can break differently. For an exact copy, use File → Save As → PDF in Word.
