PDF to Word Conversion FAQs
Find answers to common questions about PDF to Word conversion.
Will the Word file keep my PDF’s original formatting?
Yes. The conversion generally retains paragraphs, headings, tables, and lists, so you can edit the Word document directly. Complex layouts may need some cleanup.
What’s the difference between Accurate and Flowing mode?
Accurate mode keeps the original layout as closely as possible, including columns, text boxes, and inline images. Flowing mode converts the content into a single-column document, making it easier to edit extensively.
Can I convert a scanned PDF to Word?
Not currently. The converter works with PDFs that contain selectable text, while image-only scanned PDFs are not supported. OCR support is planned to unlock editing for scanned documents.
