Does it preserve formatting?

No — only plain text is extracted. Tables, images, fonts and layout are not preserved. For faithful conversion, use a dedicated layout-aware engine.

The .docx format is complex; we generate the minimum XML needed for Word to open the file. Paragraphs are preserved as separate elements.

Will scanned PDFs work?

No — scanned PDFs are images with no text layer. You'd need an OCR tool first.

No. Extraction and DOCX packaging happen entirely in your browser.
