In developmentThis tool is still in development. It needs a server component that is not switched on yet, so it will not convert files in your browser right now. The 57 browser tools work fully today — this one is coming soon.

Requires server
This tool needs a server — and isn't switched on
Unlike the 57 browser tools here, this one genuinely can't run in your browser. Office-format conversion, PDF encryption, and deep image compression need software that only exists server-side.
If you're the site owner: deploy the reference server in /server, then set API.enabled = true in assets/api.js.

How it works
- Conversion runs on the server using LibreOffice, which is the same engine most commercial converters use under the hood.
- Expect imperfection. PDF has no concept of paragraphs, tables, or styles — it's a description of marks on a page. Any PDF→Word converter is reverse-engineering structure that was thrown away. Simple text documents convert well; complex layouts, multi-column academic papers, and scanned images convert poorly. Anyone promising "100% accurate" is not being straight with you.
- Scanned/image-based PDFs will produce an empty document — run them through OCR first.
- This tool uploads your file to a server — unlike every browser-based tool here. The server processes it and deletes it immediately; it is never stored. But if that tradeoff matters to you, use the client-side tools instead, where the file provably never leaves your device.
