Our desktop app offers offline processing, which removes the need to upload files, but also means we can only process those that are locally stored on your computer. On the other hand, our website does not require you to install any software and allows you to import files from Dropbox and Google Drive. Regardless, the process to convert PDF to Word for Mac is relatively quick and painless, taking only a few seconds to finish.

When it comes to Smallpdf vs Adobe, it really comes down to personal preference, needs and budget. At Smallpdf we believe that the best PDF tools are ones that offer the best user experience, which is why we offer simple UI and fast processing power to simplify your document management workflows.
