Word to PDF
Convert DOCX documents into PDFs entirely in your browser with a client-side layout engine.
PDF Vault converts Word (.docx) documents into PDFs in your browser using a client-side layout engine, with no upload.
Converting to PDF is the last step before a document goes out: the version that should look the same on every machine and should not be casually editable. It is also, frequently, the version that contains salary figures, legal terms, or client details.
This converter renders the DOCX locally and produces a PDF you can send. Nothing is uploaded, and the output carries no watermark.
Nothing you do here is uploaded. The file is read into your browser's memory, processed by WebAssembly on your own machine, and written straight back to your downloads folder. You can confirm it yourself: open DevTools, switch to the Network tab, and run the tool — there is no request carrying your document, because there is no server endpoint to receive it.

Frequently asked questions
Will my formatting survive the conversion?
Standard documents — text, headings, lists, simple tables — convert faithfully. Very complex layouts and uncommon embedded fonts may shift slightly.
Can I convert .doc as well as .docx?
The modern .docx format is supported. Open a legacy .doc in Word or LibreOffice and save it as .docx first.
Can I password-protect the resulting PDF?
Yes, run the exported PDF through the Protect tool.
