Convert supported Word and Excel files to PDF

Convert DOCX, XLSX, or XLS files into a downloadable PDF in the browser; spreadsheet pages use vector PDF output while DOCX pages are rendered as images.

How it works

  1. Choose an office file

    Select one DOCX, XLSX, or XLS file from your device.

  2. Convert the document

    Start conversion and wait for the browser to render the file into PDF pages.

  3. Review the result

    Check page breaks, tables, and formatting in the preview, then download the PDF.

Privacy and processing

Office files are read and converted in the browser. DOCX conversion renders pages to images; inspect output for layout changes and avoid treating the PDF as an editable source document.

Frequently asked questions

Can I convert an older .doc file?

The converter accepts DOCX, XLSX, and XLS; legacy .doc is not listed as a supported input. Save the document as .docx before conversion.

Will text in a converted Word PDF be searchable?

DOCX pages are rendered as images, so text is not selectable or searchable in the output.

Are all spreadsheet sheets included?

The workbook is read for conversion; review every output page to confirm the sheets and layout you need are represented as expected.

Converting office documents to PDF

Converting a word-processing or spreadsheet file to PDF can make its layout easier to share consistently. Fonts, formulas, page breaks, hidden rows, headers, comments, and embedded objects may convert differently from the original application.

Recommended workflow

Choose the correct source file and ensure it does not contain hidden material you do not intend to share. For spreadsheets, check print areas and scaling; for documents, check fonts, comments, and tracked changes. Convert a copy and compare the result with the source.

Review before using or sharing

Inspect every page and sheet, formulas and totals, orientation, headers, footers, and accessibility. Verify sensitive metadata and hidden content in the original application before distribution. A PDF export can flatten interactive or editable features.

Privacy and responsible use

Office conversion may use a server-side service. Do not process confidential or regulated files unless you understand and accept the processing route. The Privacy Policy describes server-backed processing and document storage.

A careful final check

Before you begin, identify the exact outcome you need and the rules of the service that will receive it. A file-size limit, image dimension, page order, or calculation date can be more important than a default setting. Keep source material unchanged, use only the minimum personal information required, and do not enter credentials or payment secrets into a general utility. If the browser reports an unsupported file or an incomplete result, stop and verify the source rather than assuming the export is correct.

After processing, compare the output with the source and test it in the context where it will be used. Check the receiving organization's current instructions, confirm that the format and file size are accepted, and retain a secure copy of important originals. For official, financial, legal, or identity documents, ask the responsible authority or a qualified professional when a decision depends on interpretation. These practical checks help catch common errors, but they do not replace an official review or guarantee that a result will be accepted.

Keep a clear distinction between a file saved only on your device and a file deliberately sent to an outside service. Some browser tools load fonts or models from third parties, and translation sends selected text to its provider after you give consent. Review prompts before confirming, close the page when finished on a shared computer, and delete temporary downloads or local browser data when appropriate. If a tool uses a server-backed feature, its processing route should be checked in the Privacy Policy before submitting sensitive material.

Frequently asked questions

Will spreadsheet formulas still calculate in a PDF?

No. A PDF normally shows rendered values and layout, not a live spreadsheet calculation model.

Will comments or tracked changes appear?

They may, depending on the source and conversion settings. Review and clean the file before exporting.
