How to do it

  1. 1

    Add your file

    Add the Word document (.docx) you want to share in a fixed, universal format — a CV, a contract, a report or a cover letter.

  2. 2

    Set it up the way you want

    Choose the paper size for the PDF. Headings, lists, tables and images are rebuilt as real text, so the result stays selectable and searchable.

  3. 3

    Download the result

    Download the PDF and send it anywhere. Page breaks can fall slightly differently from Word, because the content is reproduced rather than photographed.

Questions about Word to PDF

How do I convert Word to PDF without Microsoft Word?
Open this page, add the .docx and download the PDF. There is nothing to install and no Office licence to buy, and the document is never transmitted anywhere.
Will the PDF look exactly like my Word document?
The words, headings, lists, tables and images come across; exact line and page breaks may shift a little. If the layout must be pixel-perfect, export from Word itself and use DocuGrip to compress, sign or merge the result.
Is the text in the PDF selectable and searchable?
Yes. The PDF contains real text rather than a picture of each page, so it can be searched, copied and read by screen readers — which also helps applicant tracking systems read a CV.
