Prepare the document
Open the DOC or DOCX in Word. Accept or reject tracked changes if you need a final copy.
Word to PDF
Convert a DOC or DOCX document to a PDF for sharing or printing.
How it works
Create the PDF
Add one file up to 25 MB and select “Convert to PDF”.
Check the pages
Download the PDF and review page breaks, tables, images and fonts.
Before you use the result
Check fonts, page breaks and the placement of tables and images. Tracked changes and complex formatting can affect the result. Accept or reject tracked changes in Word before converting a final copy.
If processing fails
Check that the file opens in Word, then save a new copy and try again. For a password-protected document, save an unprotected copy in Word before uploading it.
How your files are handled
No account is required. Your files are processed on the NuBox server, and access to the result is restricted to your browser session. Input files are deleted when processing finishes; the result is deleted after the server sends your download. Undownloaded results and leftover temporary files are removed by cleanup every five minutes once they are older than 30 minutes. Keep your originals.
PDF guides
Why your PDF looks different in Word
Converting a PDF to Word can change columns, tables and line breaks. Check the reading order as well as the appearance; scanned text needs OCR.
Reduce PDF size and check readability
Start with Balanced, then compare file size and readability. Try Strong compression if needed, but check small text and image detail before sharing.
