Tips for Best Results
- Scanned PDFs: If text shows as [Scanned image — …], your PDF is an image scan. Use our Image to Text (OCR) tool to extract text from scanned documents.
- Password protected: Unlock the PDF first using our PDF Password Remover before converting.
- Complex layouts: Multi-column PDFs and PDFs with overlapping text boxes may need minor formatting adjustments in Word after conversion.
