How to convert a Word document to PDF

- Tap Convert to PDF. The document is laid out on your phone.
- Open or share the PDF from the result sheet. It is saved in the PDFReader folder.
Good to know
Before you start
Layout limits
Floating text boxes and shapes do not carry over. Fonts come from your phone, so some complex scripts (for example Devanagari conjuncts) may not shape exactly as they do in Word.
About saving results
When a tool finishes, the app may ask you to watch a short video before the new file is saved. If no video is available, the file is saved anyway, and your original is never changed.
