Frequently asked questions

Are my files uploaded to your server?

No. This tool runs entirely in your web browser. Your file is read and processed on your own device and is never sent to Vexara.

Will the layout be identical?

Not exactly. PDF to Word and PDF to Excel rebuild text and rows so you can edit them; fonts, columns and images are not reproduced. PDF to PowerPoint keeps the exact look by placing each page as a picture on a slide, so text is not editable. Scanned PDFs need OCR first.

Is it free?

Yes. All tools are free to use without an account.
