PDF to Word Converter - Extract PDF Text Free Online
EzyIMG's PDF to Word tool extracts the text content from any digital PDF and saves it as a .docx Word document or a .txt plain text file. It is ideal for anyone who needs to edit, reuse, or repurpose text from a PDF report, contract, research paper, or ebook without retyping everything from scratch. DOCX output preserves paragraph structure and opens directly in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, or LibreOffice. TXT output is simpler and works in any text editor.
All text extraction is handled by PDF.js running entirely in your browser. Your PDF is never uploaded to any server, a meaningful privacy advantage when working with contracts, legal documents, or confidential reports. There is no account required, no watermark, and no usage limit. Note that this tool extracts embedded text from digital PDFs; scanned PDFs (images of pages) do not contain extractable text and will produce limited results.
