Frequently asked questions
Can I edit the generated file in Microsoft Word or Google Docs?
Yes. The tool outputs a standard .docx document fully compatible with Microsoft Word, LibreOffice Writer, and Google Docs.
What types of documents work best with this conversion?
It works best with continuous text documents such as reports, contracts, essays, and letters. In these documents, paragraphs flow cleanly for straightforward word processing.
What are its limitations compared to professional desktop software?
Because it runs entirely inside the browser without a proprietary typesetting server, documents with complex multi-column newspaper layouts, borderless nested tables, or floating text boxes will be linearized and may require manual formatting adjustments.
Are exact fonts and embedded images preserved?
Text is exported using clean, universal standard typography. Complex decorative graphics are omitted in this beta version to prioritize speed, privacy, and text fidelity.
Does it work with scanned PDFs or image-only files?
Not directly. For scanned documents where text is not selectable, you should first process the file with BreadPDF's 'PDF OCR' tool to recognize characters before converting them to Word.
Are my documents uploaded to external servers?
No. All text parsing and .docx file generation takes place 100% locally in your browser memory using client-side JavaScript. Your files never leave your machine.
