Help! I have converted a file from pdf to docx. Now, how do I edit the document??

So, How can I move my newly transformed docx into Word so I can edit it???

Hi Janet,
Welcome!
Here is a handy 'getting started' guide that may be of help. Also sometimes the coversion from PDF to docx will cause an 'image'. Clicking on the center will release the information for editing as well.
Please let me know if this helps!
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Regards, Stacy

I converted my resume from PDF to word, now how do I edit the spacing as I add information?

This is not functioning like a word file. I upgraded because I needed to add a couple dates to my resume, as well as one job, but when I did the formatting and margins are funky and I cannot add portions to the document. What do I do?

Hi beth.elizabeth,
So, in looking at your account, I see that you have an ExportPDF subscription. Did you do your conversion from the ExportPDF website, or from within Reader? And, how was the original PDF created (from a file, scanned?). The quality of your conversion is directly related to the quality of the original file.
That said, for starters, try triple-clicking in the Word file. Are you able to select the text? If not, it could be that the PDF was image-only, and was converted as an image. By default, ExportPDF should convert image text to selectable text, but you can disable that option in Reader.
If you'd like, you can message me directly, and I'd be happy to look at your file.

When I converted a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text. How can I solve this problem?

When I tried to convert a file from PDF to WORD.DOC it opened as Read Only and I'm unable to alter any of the text. How do I solve this problem? I don't know how to change it from Read Only.

Dear Sara
Thank you very much for sending the converted file. Yes, I am able to edit it - that will be very useful to me and I appreciate your help.
Referring to your previous message when you said you'd converted via Acrobat and not Acrobat.com, I'm converting via Acrobat.com because that's the only option that is shown (how do I convert via Acrobat? - perhaps that would be more successful). I'm using the Export PDF website, and the OCR is enabled to "Recognize text in English UK". However, I've just tried converting a different LPA pdf form, this time for Health & Welfare https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/245571/LPA114_He alth_welfare_LPA.pdf and again I have the same problem as before. I've altered it from "Read only" and thought I'd then be able to enter text, but "Drawing Tools" is shown in the pane and I'm unable to enter anything onto the form - everything appears to be in images. Also, the lettering on the heading of' page 1 has become jumbled, with the word "Public" overlaying the word "Guardian." Any suggestions as to what it is I'm doing wrong would be welcome - I don't like to be beaten!

Judith.

Hi M & B P,
Please give the following a try:
If you're converting via the ExportPDF website, log out, clear the cache, and then log back in.
If you're converting from within Reader, choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version.
Please let us know how it goes. If you're still having problems, please let us know how you're converting, what browser you're using, and whether you're on Mac OS and Windows. We'll do some deeper digging if need be.
Best,
Sara

When I send a pages file from my ipad to my mac i can edit the file but when i try to print it shows blank why

when i send a pages file from my ipad to my mac, i can edit the file but if I try to print it shows blank and will not print anything

Is there a reason you are not storing your Pages documents in iCloud? That would work for both your MacBook and iPad if you choose to use it (assuming your MacBook is new enough to support an OS X version that supports iCloud).
If you choose this method, any updates you make on one device would immediately be made available on the other (once you close the file).

HT5621 I have changed my apple ID....now how do I change the apple ID on my Ipad that it wants to use for login...its greyed out so impossible to change..

I have changed my Apple ID...now how do I change the default apple ID on my Ipad....the apple ID is greyed out so cant change it...

Tap on the id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap 'sign out' on the popup and then log back in with the updated version - if that is also greyed out then check to see if you currently have Settings > General > Restrictions > Accounts (under the 'allow changes' heading) set to 'Don't Allow Changes'

I am trying to convert a file from pdf. I can't see it after I hit convert to word and view converted files. How do I know if I have a subscription? Adobe is on my mac dashboard.

How do I tell if I have already paid for a membership? When I try to convert a pdf file to word, it looks like it is processing the task, but then I can't find the converted file when it says view converted file. Huh? Adobe is on my mac dashboard, I have had an account but can't see the results . . . thanks.

Hi subscription question,
I've checked your account; it looks like you tried to place two separate orders this morning, but it doesn't appear that either went through. However, it does sound as though you've been able to convert a file successfully. What happens when you log in to your account at https://cloud.acrobat.com/files? Do you see your converted file there? All converted files are automatically stored in your online account, even when you convert from within Reader.

I am using Adobe Reader with paid up service through May 2015. When I attempt to convert a file from PDF or to PDF, I get the message "An error occured while trying to access the service. What do I need to do to access the service paid for?

I am using Adobe Reader with paid up service through May 2015. When I attempt to convert a file either to PDF or from PDF, I get the error message, "An error occurred while trying to access the service". What do I need to do to get access to the service I have paid for?

Hi DeaconTomColorado,
Please see "Error occurred when trying to access this service" when logging on to Acrobat.com.
Adobe has just released an update to Adobe Reader, so if you're accessing the service via Reader, please let us know whether the update helps resolve the issue.

I need to convert a file from PDF to doc to make changes to it. How do I do this without getting an error message?

I can not convert a PDF file to a doc file. I have an older computer program and need to do this in order to make changes to a form. I just signed up for ADOBE about an hour ago. I keep getting a error message.

It took forever to get the Adobe Acrobat DC to download, it finally did and I am trying to convert a file from PDF to RTF and it is telling me that I am not connected to the Internet. This is the MOST frustrating product I have ever tried to use!! Why i

I don't want other people to answer this question, I want a an Adobe support person to answer the question.
Why can't we get support?? We paid for a product that is not able to be supported????

Hi Michelle ,
We are extremely sorry that you have had a bad experience with Adobe .
As far as your issue is concerned ,Acrobat generally prompts for internet connection as it is required to activate the product before you could use it comfortably .Once the product is activated or licensed you would be able to use the software offline .
This could be the possible reason you are experiencing this .Please check if you have done so and still facing this .And if you have not ,you need to license/activate your product by typing in your credentials ,i.e Adobe ID and password .
You could also refer the following link to get updated about the activation of your product .

I understand how to convert a file to PDF format, but not how to then send it as an attachment

How to you retrieve and attach a file which has been converted to PDF format to an email?

I don't really understand your question since you don't say whether you are trying to send to or from iPad. However on the assumption that you want to send from iPad, if you have Pages on your iPad then you can just go to the "My Documents" screen of Pages and then choose the leftmost icon at the bottom that has an arrow out of it, then choose email document and select whether you want to email it as a pdf, word or pages document.
