Why convert PDF to Word?
PDFs are great for sharing but terrible for editing. If you need to update the content of a PDF — change a clause in a contract, update a form, rewrite a report — the easiest path is converting to Word, editing, then converting back to PDF.

Frequently asked questions
Does conversion work on scanned PDFs?
Scanned PDFs are images — text needs OCR processing first. For digitally created PDFs, conversion works accurately.
Will the Word file have a watermark?
No. ihatepdf never adds watermarks to any output.
