Actually Free PDF to Word & Excel Converter

Convert PDF to editable Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), CSV or text free. Tables become real tables, numbers stay numbers. No upload.

What it does

ActuallyFreeTools converts PDFs to editable Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, CSV or plain text for free. Paragraphs and headings come across as editable text, tables become real Word or Excel tables, and numbers arrive as numbers you can add up. Exact layout, images and fonts are not reproduced. Scanned PDFs need OCR first. Nothing is uploaded.

How to use it

  1. Drop the PDF.
  2. Choose Word, Excel, CSV or plain text, and the pages.
  3. Convert and download.

Questions people ask

Will the Word file look exactly like the PDF?

No converter gets that perfect. You get the text, headings and tables in an editable document; pictures and precise positioning are left out.

Why is my output empty?

The PDF is probably a scan — pictures of text. Run OCR first, then convert the result.

Does it handle Arabic?

Yes. Right-to-left paragraphs are marked as such in Word.

Is PDF to Word, Excel & text on ActuallyFreeTools really free?

Yes. There is no sign-up, no daily limit, no watermark and no paid tier. Nothing is held back for paying users.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. PDF to Word, Excel & text runs inside your browser, so your files are processed on your own device and never sent to a server. That is also why there is nothing to meter or charge for.
