Converting speech or text to PDF means taking spoken words (via microphone voice recognition) or typed/pasted text and transforming them into a professionally formatted PDF document. You can dictate naturally, edit the transcribed text, add formatting (headings, lists, bold, tables), choose page layout, and download as a PDF. No word processor needed – create beautiful documents directly from your voice or plain text.
Accuracy depends on microphone quality, background noise, and speaking clarity. With a good microphone in a quiet environment, accuracy is typically 90-95% for major languages. The tool uses your browser's built-in Web Speech API (Chrome, Edge, Safari) – the same technology behind Google Voice Typing. For best results, speak clearly, use a quality microphone, and minimize background noise.
Our tool supports 50+ languages including: Arabic (العربية), English (US, UK, Australia, India), Spanish (Español), French (Français), German (Deutsch), Chinese (中文 – Simplified & Traditional), Japanese (日本語), Korean (한국어), Russian (Русский), Hindi (हिन्दी), Turkish (Türkçe), Italian (Italiano), Portuguese (Português), Dutch (Nederlands), Polish (Polski), Swedish (Svenska), and many more. Select your language from the dropdown before speaking.
Yes. After dictation, your speech is converted to text in an editable WYSIWYG editor. You can correct any recognition errors, add or remove content, apply rich formatting (headings, bold, italic, lists, tables), and rearrange text before converting to PDF. The editor works like a simple word processor – no HTML or Markdown knowledge required.
Rich formatting options include: headings (H1-H6), bold, italic, underline, bullet lists, numbered lists, tables, blockquotes, code blocks, horizontal rules, hyperlinks, and images. Choose fonts (Arial, Times New Roman, Helvetica, etc.), font sizes, colors, line spacing, page size (A4, Letter, Legal), orientation (portrait/landscape), and margins. Add headers/footers with page numbers, title, or date.
Absolutely. All speech recognition and PDF generation happens directly in your browser using local processing.

Speech recognition works on Chrome, Edge, Safari, and Opera browsers (desktop and Android). iOS Safari support is limited. For best results, use Chrome on Windows/Mac or Edge. Firefox does not currently support Web Speech API. The text-to-PDF feature (without speech) works on all browsers including Firefox.
Speech recognition requires an internet connection because it uses cloud-based language models. However, text-to-PDF conversion (typing or pasting text) works offline after the page loads. The PDF generation library (PDF-Lib) works entirely locally. For offline use, type or paste your text, format it, and convert to PDF without an internet connection.

For extremely long documents (500+ pages), we recommend using a desktop computer with sufficient RAM. The editor auto-saves drafts to prevent data loss.
