▣ FILE CONVERSION

Convert Word to PDF API

What it does

Word to PDF Converter turns a Word document into a PDF from a file upload, a remote URL, or base64-encoded content. You can download the PDF directly or request a signed link, depending on how you want to handle the output in your app.

Send a .doc, .docx, .odt, or .rtf file in body.file, a document URL in body.url, or base64 file bytes in body.base64. The conversion endpoints return either a binary PDF download or an object with data, a signed URI to the generated PDF. The download variants also accept landscape as a query boolean to control page orientation.

Use Word to PDF Converter when you need to generate printable documents from uploads, third-party document links, or stored file bytes. Common cases include turning user-submitted contracts into PDFs, exporting reports from a document store, or returning a finished PDF to another service without exposing the original file.
