No longer able to convert PDF files to Word.

Up until a couple of days ago I could convert PDF files to Word.  Why can't I now?

Hi M & B P,
Are you receiving an error message?  As Pat indicated, we need a bit more to go on to try to help troubleshoot this.

  • Is it no longer possible to convert pdf file to Word free in Reader X (and later)?

    I really don't want to have to pay a subscription fee to be able to convert pdf files to Word documents.  In my work, this need comes up frequently with scanned & emailed documents, but since upgrading it appears that it is no longer a free feature.  Thanks.

    If it worked before but doesn't work after you "upgraded" then, you upgraded the wrong thing.
    You "may" have had Adobe Acrobat before but now you have Adobe Reader which cannot do what you want.
    Look around in your program files. Reader should not have removed Acrobat if that's indeed what you were using.

  • Hi I have downloaded Acrobat XI Pro and when I try to convert pdf file to word the message says 'error can't sign in'

    Hi Irenedix,
    If you are using Acrobat you can try the suggestions mentioned above.
    Are you using the Create PDF service from within Reader to create pdf?
    If yes then please check if you are able to login to: https://cloud.acrobat.com/convertpdf  with your Adobe ID and able to convert the document to pdf.
    If yes then within Reader you can try the following:
    Choose Edit > Preferences (Win)
    Click 'Online Services' or 'Adobe Online Services' on the left-hand side
    Sign out of your Adobe ID and sign back in.
    Regards,

  • Converting .pdf files to Word in Pro v9 for Mac

    I have just purchased a copy of Acrobat Pro v9 for Mac with the idea of converting .pdf files to word documents in the correct format and for editing.  When I attempt to export a .pdf file to Word (2008) or save as a Word doc or docx file, the file doesn't open and my Word program freezes.  To unfreeze, I need for force quit Word and begin again.  I was told that pdf to word could be done in this version of Acrobat.  Has anyone had this experience?

    What type Document, was it to begin with? (Text/Image)
    If the PDF was a Text document, you should be able to with no problem?
    IF text based and converted, try opening word first then open the document.
    There is a format that Word will read called RTF (Rich Text File), that Word can read.
    Try converting to RTF then try opening. When opened then save as DOC or DOCX
    If it was created from a scan, Word my not open it, because it is an image (a Big Picture).
    Finally, if it has a lot of images, they may not do right, and may cause a lot of  problems.

  • Need help with converting PDF files to word document.

    When attempting to convert PDF files to word document, after clicking on "convert" a message "error occurred while signing in" displays. Don't know why??? I'm logged into my account and haven't been able to convert documents.

    Assuming that you try to use the ExportPDF service, I am moving your topic to the ExportPDF forum.
    Just for completeness, can you post your operating system, browser, and Adobe Reader version?

  • I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    I need to convert PDF file to Word Document, so it can be edited. But the recognizing text options do not have the language that I need. How I can convert the file in the desired of me language?

    The application Acrobat provides no language translation capability.
    If you localize the language for OS, MS Office applications, Acrobat, etc to the desired language try again.
    Alternative: transfer a copy of content into a web based translation service (Bing or Google provides a free service).
    Transfer the output into a word processing program that is localized to the appropriate language.
    Do cleanup.

  • I have acrobat 11 standard is it possible to convert pdf files to word files ?

    I have acrobat 11 standard is it possible to convert pdf files to word files ? or is it just possible in the Pro version.

    It sounds to me like you're using Reader, not Acrobat. Make sure you open
    the PDF file in Acrobat, and then go to File - Save As Other - Microsoft
    Word.

  • I am a new first time user of adobe to convert pdf. files to word, etc.  I must add that I am 75 years old and not a computer literate fellow.  I have a fairly large pdf file that I want to convert to word so I can cut ?

    I am a new first time user of adobe to convert pdf. files to word, etc.  I must add that I am 75 years old and not a computer literate fellow.  I have a fairly large pdf file that I want to convert to word so I can cut & paste, etc ?  Any & all help will be appreciated.

  • Unable to convert PDF file into word document

    I just signed up with Adobe in order to convert a PDF file into a word document and it continues to fail.  Any suggestions.

    If you have adobe X, simply go to "File" -> "Save-As" and Microsoft Word is an option. Also, there is a download (paid) called Able2Extract that will allow you to convert pdfs to word, excel, etc. but the formatting is often lost. If you get the premium package, you can even convert scanned documents. I've used Adobe X to do the conversion, and it retains headers, footers and all formatting.
    And i personally share you with a article about how to converting PDF files to Word(.doc), you just need to follow the easy guide.
    Hope it can help you a lot.

    Hi
    How can I convert pdf file to word ( I have installed microsoft word on my mac)
    please advise
    Thank You

    You need an OCR program. The most popular is Adobe Acrobat, but there are many free PDF> TXT programs.

  • After I have converted PDF file to Word how can I select certain pages to save them as a new document? Thank you

    After I have converted PDF file to Word how can I select certain pages to save them as a new document? Thank you

    You've said you have a Word file and want to use some pages in the file to create a new document.
    Use Word to establish a new Word file that has the desired pages for the original Word file.
    You now have a "new document" of the desired pages.
    With Acrobat Standard or Pro installed you can create a "new document" PDF.
    If you do not have Acrobat Standard or Pro or a subscription to an online Adobe service that can create PDF from MS Word you can use the Microsoft process to create PDF that comes with MS Word.

  • I bought your program to convert PDF files to WORD doc. files. I did this and when I send the files as an attachment to recipients the recipients say the attachment is blank! I want a refund!!

    I bought this Adobe program to convert PDF files to Word doc. files so I could e-mail them as an attachment to people who do not have Adobe Reader. When the people got my e-mail with the attachment and opened it. The attachment was BLANK!! Is there a way to correct this?? or should I just get my money back and cancel this program?

    Hi bogy,
    How very frustrating! I'm sorry that your email attachment was blank. I'm sure this is a silly question, but did the Word file display as expected on your own machine? If not, then the issue is quite likely with the conversion from PDF to Word (but what you describe isn't a common issue that we're hearing about).
    If it looks OK for you, then I suspect the issue lies outside of ExportPDF. If the Word doc is blank when you open it, then please tell me a bit more about the PDF that you're trying to convert and we will take it from there.
    Best,
    Sara
