What this tool does to your file

The Word document’s text is read and written into a PDF that opens identically everywhere, with no copy of Word needed at the other end. It carries the wording rather than the design: no fonts are embedded, so the PDF is built from the standard set every reader already has, and images, exact positioning and page furniture are not reproduced. That choice has one consequence worth knowing before you upload. Characters outside Latin-1 have no glyph in those standard fonts and are written as a question mark — which includes Hungarian’s ő and ű, and every non-Latin script. Tabs become spaces. Accepts .docx, legacy .doc and .rtf. You can convert up to 20 files in one job, each up to 10 MB as a guest or 25 MB signed in, though .rtf is capped at 25 MB whatever your tier because the format is uncompressed.

What happens to your files

No account needed — Every tool works as a guest. Signing in raises the limits and keeps your files together, but nothing asks you to register before you get a result.
It runs in your browser — There is nothing to install and nothing to keep up to date. Files travel to our servers over an encrypted connection, and come back the same way.
Your files stay yours — Files and results stay in your account until you delete them. Files from a guest session that is never linked to an account are removed automatically after a period of inactivity.
Size limits, stated up front — Up to 10 MB per file as a guest, and up to 25 MB signed in. You see the limit before you upload, not after.
