How to Convert Word to PDF (Quick & Easy)

About this video

Kevin Stratvert gives a very brief, step-by-step walkthrough of converting a Microsoft Word document to PDF using Word’s built-in tools, with no extra software needed. With a Word document open, he goes to the File menu, clicks Export, and chooses Create PDF/XPS Document. He then clicks Create PDF, gives the file a name, and clicks Publish, which produces the PDF version of the document. He also shows an alternative route that works just as well: go to File, then Save As, and choose PDF from the File Type dropdown. He closes by noting that either method works and inviting viewers to like and subscribe if the tip helped.

Key takeaways

• Method one: in Word go to File > Export > Create PDF/XPS Document, click Create PDF, name the file, and click Publish.
• Method two: go to File > Save As and choose PDF from the File Type dropdown.
• Both approaches use Word’s built-in export features, so no third-party converter is needed.
• The Export route ends with clicking Publish rather than Save to generate the PDF.
• The two methods are interchangeable — the creator says either way works.
