Common questions

Is the text really editable?

Yes. Text comes across as real Word text, and tables that line up in columns become Word tables.

What about charts and complex layouts?

Charts drawn as graphics cannot become editable Word charts, so they do not carry over. Pictures can be included as images. Pages with several columns may come out in the wrong order, so check the file.

Does it work with scanned PDFs?

No. A scan is only a picture of the page, so there is no text to convert. Text recognition (OCR) is not included yet.
