Why convert files to Word (DOCX)?

DOCX is the most widely used document format for editing, collaboration, and archiving. Whether you are preparing a client proposal, rewriting slides into a report, reusing spreadsheet content, or extracting text from images and PDFs, converting to Word gives you full control over text, layout, and styling. With this tool, you don’t need desktop software or complicated workflows — just upload, convert, and start editing.

• Editable: Change fonts, colors, spacing, and styles instantly.
• Compatible: Open DOCX in Microsoft Word, Google Docs, Apple Pages, and LibreOffice.
• Shareable: Easy to send via email, share as a cloud link, or export to PDF after editing.

Supported input formats

This page supports the following formats and converts them into clean, editable DOCX files. Here’s what to expect from each:

• PPTX to Word: Slides are converted into document sections. Titles become headings; bullet lists become paragraphs or lists you can refine.
• XLSX to Word: Tables and ranges turn into neat Word tables. Great for reports that need narrative plus data.
• PDF to Word: We aim to preserve layout and fonts. After conversion, you can copy, edit, and restyle the content.
• TXT to Word: Plain text is transformed into a properly styled DOCX with paragraphs and headings you can format.
• JPG/PNG/JPEG to Word: Images are embedded into a DOCX. If text recognition (OCR) is available for your file, you can copy and edit extracted text easily.

How to use the converter

1. Open Convert to Word.
2. Click Upload and select a PPTX, XLSX, PDF, TXT, JPG, PNG, or JPEG file.
3. Start conversion. The document is processed securely and a .docx file is generated.
4. Download your Word file and open it in Microsoft Word or Google Docs to edit.

Tip: For best results, keep your source well-structured — clear headings, consistent fonts, and high-resolution images make editing easier after conversion.

Best-practice checklist

1) Slides to Word (PPTX → DOCX)

• Use slide titles and bullet points; they become headings and lists.
• Group related content on one slide to map cleanly into a document section.
• Provide alt text or speaker notes if you need extra narrative context.

2) Spreadsheets to Word (XLSX → DOCX)

• Clean your range: remove empty rows/columns and merged cells.
• Use descriptive headers; they become table headings in DOCX.
• Place charts near their data. After conversion, right-click to change styles or captions.

3) PDFs to Word (PDF → DOCX)

• Embed fonts in your PDF to preserve appearance after conversion.
• Avoid scanned PDFs when possible; original digital PDFs give better text fidelity.
• If the PDF is scanned, enable text recognition (OCR) when available for editable text.

4) Images to Word (JPG/PNG/JPEG → DOCX)

• Use high-resolution images (≥1600px longest side) to avoid pixelation.
• Ensure good contrast for OCR to capture text accurately.
• Crop out distractions; clean images produce cleaner documents.

5) Text files to Word (TXT → DOCX)

• Add simple markers for sections (e.g., # for headings) if you can — it helps structure your DOCX.
• Keep paragraphs short to improve readability once converted.

What this tool does (and doesn’t)

This converter focuses on accuracy and editability. It converts pptx, XLSX, PDF, TXT, JPG, PNG, JPEG to Word (DOCX) with sensible defaults so your file opens cleanly in Word or Google Docs. It is not a full layout designer; complex, highly styled PDFs or presentations may need light touch-ups after conversion. That said, most everyday files will be ready to edit right away.

Use cases

• Reports & proposals: Turn slide decks or PDFs into a narrative report that clients can review and comment on.
• Data narratives: Bring tables from Excel into Word with space for explanations, insights, and recommendations.
• Archiving & compliance: Store important documents in a widely editable format for future updates.
• Education: Convert handouts, worksheets, and images into editable DOCX for classroom use.
• Content reuse: Repurpose earlier presentations or scans into fresh, searchable documents.

Editing your DOCX after conversion

Open your file in Word or Google Docs and tailor it to your needs:

• Apply your brand styles: fonts, colors, headings, and spacing.
• Use headings and a table of contents for long documents.
• Replace images or add captions and callouts for clarity.
• Convert lists into tables, or vice-versa, depending on the story you want to tell.
• Export to PDF when you need a fixed layout for final sharing.

Privacy & security

We treat your files with care. Avoid uploading confidential information on shared devices, clear your downloads after saving, and store final DOCX files securely in your preferred cloud drive. If you collaborate with others, manage permissions carefully to control who can edit or comment.

Troubleshooting

• Fonts changed: Replace unavailable fonts in Word with your brand fonts or use built-in theme fonts.
• Tables misaligned: Split wide tables across pages or reduce columns before conversion.
• Scanned PDF looks rough: Re-scan at higher resolution or enable OCR if available for better text extraction.
• Images blurry: Use higher-resolution sources; avoid screenshots of text when possible.
