Why Use Link-to-PDF Conversion?

FAQ: Converting Word Document URLs to PDF

Q: What is a "Direct URL"?

A: A direct URL is a link that points specifically to the file (e.g., example.com/file.docx). If the link opens a login page or a preview website first, the converter may not be able to reach the file.

Q: Does it work with private Google Drive links?

A: No. The link must be set to "Anyone with the link can view" so our tool can access the content to perform the conversion.

Q: Is the PDF layout the same as the original?

A: Yes. We strive to maintain the original formatting, fonts, and images from the online Word document during the PDF generation process.
