Frequently asked questions

What file formats can Nutrient convert PDFs into?

Nutrient’s PDF-to-Office SDK converts PDF files into fully editable Microsoft Office formats — including DOCX (Word), XLSX (Excel), and PPTX (PowerPoint) — with high accuracy and minimal effort.

Does PDF-to-Office conversion require a server?

No. Nutrient’s SDK supports full client-side conversion using WebAssembly — no server setup, network round trips, or external dependencies required. You can also run conversions server-side using Document Engine or REST APIs.

Do I need Microsoft Office or LibreOffice installed?

Not at all. Nutrient’s conversion engine is completely self-contained — built from the ground up and not reliant on Microsoft Office, LibreOffice, or any third-party converter.

Can I convert multiple documents in one workflow?

Yes. The SDK supports headless and batch PDF-to-Office conversion, making it ideal for automated pipelines, bulk processing, and backend workflows.

Will my document layout and formatting be preserved?

Yes. Nutrient maintains the visual integrity of the original PDF — including layout, fonts, tables, and vector graphics — for reliable, editable output in Word, Excel, or PowerPoint.

How does the SDK handle missing or custom fonts?

You can embed your own fonts or use Nutrient’s dynamic font loading to ensure characters render correctly — even in multilingual or legacy documents.

Can I trigger conversion from the UI?

Yes. Developers can expose Office conversion directly in the UI using customizable buttons, or trigger it programmatically via API. This enables both manual and automated workflows.

What platforms are supported?

Nutrient Web SDK supports all modern browsers and JavaScript frameworks, including React, Angular, and Vue. You can also deploy PDF-to-Office conversion in backend environments using Document Engine or DWS APIs.
