Fonts, headings, tables and pictures come across, every line breaks where the PDF broke it, and the DOCX has the same pages as the PDF.

Odia PDF to WordFree, with nothing to sign up for
No account, no email address, no watermark on the result and no daily limit. Files up to 100 MB are accepted. Your PDF is uploaded to this server to be converted, is never shared with anyone, and is deleted an hour after the conversion finishes whether or not anyone else visits. Only the browser that uploaded a file can see or download the result. If you would rather the file never left your own machine, the converter is open source and you can run this same program yourself.
Questions
Is this PDF to DOCX converter really free?
Yes. It is open source, there is no paid tier, and nothing is added to the file you get back.
Will the Word document look like the PDF?
Close to it. Lines break in the same places and the page count matches. A typeface your computer does not have is swapped for Times New Roman, Arial or Courier New, and the spacing is adjusted so the lines still fit.
Can it convert a scanned PDF to Word?
Yes. Pages without selectable text are recognised automatically, including files where a print driver turned the text into outlines.
What file do I get?
A .docx file, the format Word has used since 2007. Google Docs, LibreOffice Writer and Apple Pages open it too.
What happens to my files?
They are uploaded to this server, kept only while the conversion runs, and deleted an hour after it finishes, on a timer that does not wait for another visitor. A file is uploaded as soon as you choose it, so its first page can be shown; if you close the window instead of converting it, it is deleted there and then, and otherwise an hour later. Only the browser that uploaded a file can see it or download the result, and nothing is passed to anyone else.
