Word to PDF Converter - Clean, Print-Ready DOCX Exports
Turn DOCX files into polished PDFs without uploading a thing. Choose page size, orientation, and margins, preview the output, and download instantly with Dexify's client-side renderer.
Explanation
Dexify's Word to PDF converter keeps DOCX flows fast and private. Everything runs in your browser using Mammoth to read the document and html2pdf to render a polished PDF, so contracts, proposals, or internal docs never leave your device. Drop a file, pick your layout, and you get an instant preview before downloading.
Controls are tuned for predictable output. Page size presets (A4, Letter, Legal) cover common print targets, while orientation and margin selectors help you dial in white space for signatures or annotations. The helper text reminds you that processing is local, and status chips summarize supported formats and the on-device pipeline. If you need to adjust after seeing the preview, reset and rerun without reloading the page.
Because rendering is client-side, performance scales with your hardware instead of a shared queue. Keep DOCX files within tens of megabytes for best responsiveness; larger, media-heavy docs may take longer. If you rely on custom fonts, convert to outlines in Word or stick to web-safe families to ensure consistent output. Once rendered, the PDF downloads immediately with a clean filename based on your source document.
Dexify aligns UI patterns across tools, so the chips, upload area, and status indicators match what you see in JPG/PDF conversions, compression, and protection. After converting, you can send the PDF to Dexify Compress to reduce size, Protect to add a password, or Merge to append with other documents. The goal is a dependable, repeatable DOCX-to-PDF workflow that respects privacy, keeps layout sensible, and stays quick enough for daily handoffs across legal, sales, and content teams.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are files uploaded?
No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser using Mammoth + html2pdf. Nothing is sent to a server.
Which formats?
DOCX is supported today. Older DOC files aren't, but you can resave as DOCX in Word/Google Docs first.
Layout fidelity?
Formatting, headings, and lists are preserved in most documents. Complex elements (embedded objects) may simplify.
Page sizes?
Choose A4, Letter, or Legal and portrait/landscape. Margins can be adjusted to fit more content.
Maximum file size?
About 50 MB is recommended for smooth browser performance. Very large files depend on your device memory.
Images and fonts?
Embedded images are kept. Custom fonts may render using closest web-safe equivalents if not available locally.
Are links kept?
Hyperlinks usually stay clickable. If a link is missing, re-add it in the exported PDF using your editor.
Tables and lists?
Tables and bullet lists are preserved in most documents. Very complex tables may simplify to keep output stable.
Batch converting?
One file at a time here. For batches, queue them back-to-back or use a dedicated batch flow when available.
