Lemon/PDF & documents

Convert Word to PDF on Mac

Someone sent a .docx and you need a PDF, and you would rather not open a word processor to get it. Lemon converts it from Finder. You don't need Microsoft Word installed.

Two ways to do it on a Mac.

With Lemon

One click in Finder.

  1. 1Hold Option and click the DOCX in Finder.
  2. 2Flick it onto PDF on the lemon that appears.
  3. 3The PDF lands right beside the original.

Select several files first and they are all converted together. Nothing is uploaded: Lemon works with Wi-Fi off.

Built into macOS

Using Pages.

  1. 1Open the DOCX in Pages.
  2. 2Choose File, then Export To, then PDF.
  3. 3Pick a quality and save.

It opens the whole document in an editor first, and you repeat it for every file.

Questions.

No. Lemon uses the document tools built into macOS.

More conversions
