Convert a DOCX file to PDF

Use jetformat word to-pdf to convert a DOCX file to PDF.

By Jetformat

Convert an existing DOCX locally and supply the fonts used by the document. Legacy DOC and macro-enabled DOCM inputs are outside this command’s supported set.

Steps

  1. Start with a local DOCX. Replace the sample paths and identifiers with your own.
  2. Run the command below. Save to a new output path so the source remains available for comparison.
  3. Check the result as described below before using it in another job.
jetformat word to-pdf contract.docx -o contract.pdf

Options for this task

Option Meaning
--font-dir Extra font directory; may be repeated
--output Output PDF path; defaults to the input basename

Check the result

Run pdf info for the output page count and render a representative page to review line wrapping.

Notes and limits

This operation uses page-based credits. Review the billing guide before processing a large document.

The examples keep the original file. Add --force only when you intend to overwrite an existing output. Run jetformat word to-pdf --help to compare options with your installed version.

See the word command reference for the surrounding workflow.
