sipWindows PCs -both laptops and desktops- lack a native tool to transform a document from PDF to Word in just one click. What you do have are endless alternatives to perform this procedure from easy-to-use programs, such as Microsoft Word itself. Through Word, the procedure to save a PDF file as Word is as follows:
  1. Open your .pdf file with Microsoft Word.
  2. Once you see it, click on the "File" menu, click on the "Export" option and select "Change file type".
  3. Choose the Word format in which you want to save the document (.doc .docx or others) and store the file on your device.
Moreover, you can save a PDF as Word via Google Drive. It’s as easy as uploading the PDF to your Drive account and then following these steps:
  1. Once you have uploaded the .pdf document to your Google Drive account, open it with the Google viewer (you will have to click on the drop-down list of viewers and select the "Google Documents" option.)
  2. Now, tap on the "File" menu, click on "Download" and finally, tap on the " Microsoft Word (.docx)" option.

The simplest way to export a PDF as Word on Mac is to use the Google Docs text editor on Google Drive, Big G’s cloud storage service. If you already have an account in this service (you just need an @gmail.com email,) the steps you should follow are detailed below:
  1. Upload your .pdf document to any folder in your Google Drive account.
  2. Open the document from the Google viewer, selecting the "Google Documents" option in the drop-down list of supported services to view the file.
  3. Once you see the document on your screen, click on the "File" menu, display the "Download" menu options and, finally, click on the "Microsoft Word (.docx)" option.
  4. It’s done! You will now have the Word version of your PDF document downloaded to the memory of your device.

The easiest way to save a PDF as Word on Android is to use one of the format conversion apps available in the Google Play Store. Try searching for "pdf to word converter" to see the available results. Once you have chosen the application, the process is usually always the same:
  1. Select the file you want to convert from PDF to Word. It must be a .pdf file.
  2. Next, choose the Word extension you want to store the document in (there are many available, but the most popular ones are .doc and .docx) and carry out the conversion.
  3. Once the process is complete, you will have the document ready on your device. It will usually be in the "Downloads" or "Documents" folder, so try looking for it there.

If you want to perform this conversion from an iPhone or iPad, you will have to resort to one of the PDF to Word converter applications available in the App Store. They are free applications that have as their only function the conversion of one format to another (and vice versa), so it will not be difficult for you to choose one. Once you have installed the application that you are going to use for this procedure, follow these steps:
  1. Open the document viewer of your iPhone or iPad (Files) and hold your finger on the file you want to convert.
  2. You will see a menu displayed at the bottom of your screen. There, click on the icon of an arrow pointing upwards.
  3. From the list of available apps to share, select the conversion app you’ve previously downloaded.
  4. Now, just follow the on-screen instructions to change .pdf files to .doc or .docx.

Frequently Asked Questions About Converting PDF To Word

The answer to this question about converting PDF to Word to write on the file, lies on the former format’s origin. "PDF" stands for "Portable Document Format". It was created in 1993 with the idea of a document format that could be taken (hence the “Portable”) anywhere, which is universal and compatible with all systems. However, it was not designed to directly modify it.

Yes, you can write on a PDF without changing its format. Online, you can find a program that allows you to write on PDFs. The problem is that it doesn’t guarantee compatibility with all operating systems, and the text may not look the same on all devices.

Let’s say a PDF file that weighs 3 KB is converted into Word. The resulting document will just occupie 2 KB. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about the file’s storage space.

Of course! You can write, draw or underline on scanned documents. Converting a scanned PDF to Word will let you make all the appropriate changes. But, remember, first, you need to convert the scanned file (it can be a photo of a document taken with your mobile, for example) into a .pdf file.

In principle, you should have no problems converting a protected PDF document to an editable .doc or .docx. In addition, it is also possible to unlock the file before using the converter, to make sure you do not lose information in the process.

For the conversion you will not need any program, since the whole process is done through the online tool. Nevertheless, you should use a text editor, see for example OpenOffice, for editing the .doc document.
