Practical usage guide
A practical workflow for PDF to Word
Convert supported PDFs to Word with the original page layout and editable text boxes. Unsupported documents are refused.
2. Review
Review every DOCX page in Microsoft Word against the source. Text is editable in fixed-position boxes; fonts are substituted and only graphics are rasterized.
3. Apply
Save a reviewed copy. Text boxes do not flow like paragraphs, and table grids/graphics are not editable shapes. Scans, forms and unsupported layouts are refused rather than flattened into fake editable text. Inline images, Type3 fonts, unsupported content compression and non-natural text spacing are also refused. Consecutive spaces collapsed by the PDF reader are also refused rather than guessed.
