Get the best conversion results
Follow these expert tips to maximize quality and efficiency when converting DOC to PDF.
Check Embedded Fonts
If your DOC uses uncommon fonts, ensure they are embedded or use standard fonts like Arial, Times New Roman, or Calibri for best results.
Review Page Layout
Before converting, check your document page margins and orientation. These are preserved in the PDF output.
Optimize Images
Large images in your DOC can increase PDF file size. Compress images before converting for smaller output.
Use Standard Styles
Word built-in heading and paragraph styles convert more reliably than custom formatting for consistent PDF output.
Test Hyperlinks
Hyperlinks in your DOC may not transfer to PDF in browser-based conversion. Verify important links after conversion.
Check Tables
Complex table layouts generally convert well. If tables span multiple pages, check page breaks in the output for proper continuity.
