What to expect
Text, images and page layout are converted together. Fonts and complex formatting may differ from your Office editor; check your PDF before sharing.
Macros in Office 97–2003 files are not run. Embedded objects and very old files from before Office 97 may be omitted or refused.
Large documents may exceed your device’s available memory. If conversion fails, try a smaller document or another device.
Help with conversion
The converter does not start
Check your connection while the converter prepares itself, then retry. This converter needs a modern browser and sufficient memory.
My document could not be converted
Open the document in your editor and save a new DOC copy. Password-protected, damaged or unsupported files may fail. The input limit is 10 MiB and the PDF output limit is 20 MiB.
Processing takes too long
Preparing the converter stops after two minutes; conversion stops after one minute. You can cancel during processing and restart with a smaller document.

A practical guide
Convert legacy DOC records to PDF
- Select the DOC source document for the record.
- Convert it to a fixed PDF copy on your device.
- Verify page count, table rows and figure placement against the source.
Try this example
Convert a six-page DOC test procedure with two tables; confirm both tables keep their row count and the revision block stays on page one.
Before you start: Embedded OLE objects and pre-Word 97 files may be omitted or refused, so compare page counts with the original before filing.
