Guide for DOCX to PDF
Introduction
Convert Word files to PDF without losing layout, headers, or links. This guide shows how to prepare DOCX files so the exported PDF is stable and ready for sharing or printing.
When to use DOCX to PDF
- Send resumes, proposals, or contracts without formatting shifts
- Freeze page layout before e-signatures or printing
- Share files that must look identical on any device and OS
- Reduce editability while keeping links and images intact
How to use
- Clean the DOCX: accept tracked changes, remove macros, and keep fonts you want in the final PDF.
- Upload the DOCX (up to 500 MB) via the upload button or drag-and-drop.
- Wait for conversion — the service preserves page size, spacing, tables, and hyperlinks automatically.
- Download the PDF; if you need tweaks, update the DOCX and re-upload.
Tips and recommendations
- Use standard or embedded fonts to avoid unexpected replacements in the PDF.
- Compress heavy images first to keep the PDF light (e.g., use Compress JPG or Compress PNG).
- Keep page size consistent (A4 or Letter) inside Word to prevent reflow.
Example: signable contract without layout shifts
- Upload a DOCX that includes your logo, numbered clauses, and a signature block.
- Export to PDF so the recipient sees identical spacing and can sign digitally without reformatting.
Frequently asked questions
Will the formatting stay the same?
Yes. Fonts, tables, bullet lists, headers/footers, and links are preserved during conversion.
Can I convert large or multi-page files?
Yes, files up to 500 MB are supported. For very image-heavy documents, compress images first to speed up conversion.
Are my documents private?
Files are processed securely and automatically deleted within 24 hours.
How do I make the PDF smaller?
Reduce image size in the DOCX or run the result through Compress PDF for an extra size cut.
