How to convert a Word document to PDF (and keep the layout)

Turn DOCX, DOC, ODT or RTF files into a PDF that looks the same on every device, without installing anything.

· 4 min read

A Word file can look different on every computer: fonts get replaced, tables shift, page breaks move. A PDF fixes the layout, so what you send is what the other person sees. Most portals and many employers also ask for PDF.

Convert in 3 steps

  1. Open Word to PDF and upload a DOCX, DOC, ODT or RTF file (max 10 MB).
  2. Click Process.
  3. Download the PDF.

Tips for a perfect result

  • Common fonts such as Calibri, Cambria, Arial and Times New Roman are matched with metric-compatible fonts, so line breaks stay the same.
  • Remove any document password in Word first; protected files cannot be converted.
  • Accept or reject tracked changes before converting if you do not want them visible.

What to do next

Combine the PDF with other documents using Merge PDF, or add a Verify Stamp to a final contract or offer so the recipient can check it was not changed.

Your document is processed in memory and deleted right after conversion.
