FAQ

Which Word file formats are supported?

Both .doc (Word 97-2003) and .docx (Word 2007 and later) formats are supported. Upload your file and conversion begins automatically after you click the start button.

Will the PDF look the same as my Word document?

The converter preserves standard formatting including fonts, paragraph styles, and layout. Complex custom styles or embedded macros may not render identically.

Are embedded images preserved in the PDF?

Yes. Images embedded in the Word document are included in the converted PDF at their original positions. Image quality depends on how the images were inserted in the source document.

Is the Word file kept after conversion?

No. The upload and the generated PDF are stored temporarily and automatically deleted within 30 minutes. Download your PDF immediately after conversion.

Can I convert a password-protected Word file?

Password-protected Word documents cannot be processed. Remove the password protection from the Word file before uploading it for conversion.
