Hey guys, welcome to our channel.
Today I’m going to show you the best ways to convert your PDF file
to an editable word file for free,
while keeping the original formatting.
Before we start, I just want to mention that you probably have noticed
there are a lot of online PDF converting tools
that claim to be able to convert PDF to word for free,
but if you have ever tried some of these tools,
you’d probably know that they either convert your PDF to a word file
with only images in it,
or only allow you to convert 2 or 3 pages.
But what we are talking about here is to convert a PDF file of 100 pages
to an editable word file.
So the online converters can barely be counted as a solution.
But if you have a PDF file with only 2 or 3 pages,
you still might be able to get a decent result from these online converters.
So anyway.
For our 100-page PDF file,
there are 2 ways to convert it to word without losing formatting.
The first one is to directly open it with Microsoft Word.
Here is how you do it.
Launch Microsoft Word,
click Open, and find your PDF file.
As you can see, it says “Word will now convert your PDF to an editable word document”.
Now click okay, and Word will start converting your PDF file immediately.
After the conversion is done,
you should be able to see the converted word file in Microsoft Word.
The result looks quite good, actually.
It gets the color right,
the overall layout looks okay,
and the formatting also seems to be okay.
But if you have a closer look,
there are still something got messed up. Like this page over here.
Besides that,
you can only convert 1 PDF file at a time.
If you have, say 10 PDF files that you need to convert,
then you are gonna have to convert and save these files one by one
in Microsoft Word manually.
Which would be very time-consuming.
So here comes another solution.
I’m actually very excited to show you this.
iMyFone MintPDF is the new software we have just developed and released recently.
You can get full access to this software for completely free now,
and it can help you easily convert your PDF file to word without losing formatting.
Let me show you how to do this.
So we launch MintPDF,
drag and drop the source PDF file,
then click convert.
Simple as that.
Remember you can also choose whether you want to save the file as a “doc” file or a “docx” file.
Most of the time they don’t make much difference but,
the options are there, just in case you need them.
In addition, as you can see, the PDF file can be converted to not only word,
but also image, PowerPoint, text, Excel etc. Very powerful.
Now wait for a couple of seconds and you will have the converted word file.
Let’s have a look.
So unlike Microsoft Word,
MintPDF tries its best to keep the original formatting.
Let’s have a look at the page where Microsoft Word messed up just now.
As you can see, MintPDF got it right this time.
Do keep in mind that this PDF file that I’m converting here is an extremely complicated file.
It has a lot of graphics, layouts and a lot of fonts of different sizes.
So the output may not look perfect.
But comparing to all current solutions,
MindPDF could definitely be one of the best choices
if you want to convert PDF to editable word without losing formatting.
Besides, we are constantly updating the software.
So if you have any issue while converting your PDF files,
feel free to contact us and we will do our best to make the program better and better.
As I mentioned before,
anyone can claim a free license and get full access to MintPDF right now.
