Word to PDF

Drops a Word document straight into a PDF: headings, paragraphs, bold and italic runs, bullet and numbered lists, tables and embedded images. Built for the documents people actually send — letters, reports, CVs — rather than for reproducing a hundred-page typeset manuscript to the millimetre.

Questions people actually ask

How faithful is the conversion?

Faithful on structure and styling — headings, weights, lists, tables, images and alignment. It is not a full Word layout engine: exotic templates, text boxes, columns and floating shapes are simplified. For a letter, a report or a CV it looks right.

Does .doc work, or only .docx?

Only .docx, the modern format. Word’s old binary .doc is a different beast; open it in Word or Google Docs and save as .docx first.

Do you keep a copy of my file?

No. Word to PDF runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly and the Canvas API — the bytes of your document never travel to us. The only thing that reaches our servers is a counter incrementing by one, and whatever you deliberately choose to save to your library.

Is Word to PDF free?

Not this one. Word to PDF is part of Baker, at $10 a month — along with the other conversion, compression and security tools, and the AI ones. Signing, editing, watermarking, merging, splitting, rotating, organising and cropping are free, three documents a day up to ten pages each, with no account.
