Opening a pdf document in word

I've downloaded and installed the trial version of Adobe but I cannot figure out how to take a pdf document and open it in word?  what do I do???

The other option is to purchase OFFICE 2013, though I am not sure how well the import for WORD 2013 is as part of the MS engine.

  • How do I open my pdf documents in word and not in adobe reader?

    I have a Mac.  How do I set my computer so that my pdf documents open in word rather than in adobe reader?

    If you opened a pdf document in Word, all you would see is a bunch of code so, it wouldn't help you.
    Are you actually looking to "convert" a pdf document to a Word document so you can edit it?

    When I sign in to the Adobe Reader XI (which is the only option that I have to open a pdf document, I will sign in to the Adobe ID sign-in page. After I do this, the "Convert To" box goes "gray" and I am unable to convert the document I have selected.  It was working great for the first week that I used it, but now it doesn't give me the converting option.  I am very frustrated as I have done nothing to change anything, and I was thinking this was so great...now I am just pulling out my hair and do not have the option of calling anyone since no phone numbers are listed. I am VERY busy and do not have time to sit and wait over a half an hour to "chat", which I tried to do yesterday.  All I want to do is very simply, convert pdfs to Word.  I have paid for this and am not getting any help. I am not very savvy when it comes to Adobe this program and Adobe that program...I feel I am being scammed as I do not get simple answers for something that appeared was going to be simple. You can't even call customer service to talk to someone live to help walk you through. 

    Hello Kathie,
    Sorry for the inconvenience that has caused to you.
    Please let me know if you have tried converting any other PDF to word with Reader.
    Alos, please sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/" using your Adobe ID credentials. Click on 'ExportPDF' tab and upload the PDF that you want to convert to Word.
    Let me know if this converts fine.
    Hope to hear from you.
    regards,

  • When converting a PDF document to word, the word count feature is not giving me the number of words

    I have been using Acrobat for converting PDF documents to Word.  It had been working just fine, but lately, when I convert a PDF document to Word, it is not giving me the word count, which is why I subscribed in the first place. Someone has any idea of why?

    Hi Robin,
    I would recommend you to use Acrobat software to convert this pdf file, Acrobat software enable you to customize the conversion settings.
    You can download a free 30-day trial from this Link : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html
    After downloading and installing acrobat, Open pdf file in Acrobat, go to File menu -> Click 'save as other' -> Microsoft Word -> Word Document.
    A pop-up window will appear that would prompt you to choose the file to be converted, after you select the file, click on the settings button on the bottom left of the pop-up window and choose 'Retain Page layout' under layout settings, click ok and then save.
    Hope that helps with your query.
    Regards,
    Rahul

  • How to I stop the Preview Pane in Windows 7 retaining control when I open a PDF document using Adobe Acrobat (Reader is NOT installed)

    I have the preview pane active when selecting PDF Documents.  When I open a PDF document I am unable to save any changes. the error message I receive:
    "The documents could not be saved. The file ma be read-only,or another user may have it open. Please save the document with a different name of in a different folder"
    The document is not read only and no other user has it open.  If I turn the preview pane OFF there is no problem saving changes.  I have also un-installed Adobe Reader.
    Other programs (such as Excel, Word) do not experience the same problems as the PDF documents.
    Does anyone have a solution?

    Hi snoreaustralia,
    It sounds like you just need to associate the PDF filename extension with Acrobat, rather than Preview. Please see this document from the Microsoft Help for instructions on choosing the default program for opening a particular file type (in your case, PDF): Change which programs Windows uses by default - Windows Help

  • Why can't I convert a PDF document to Word?

    I just recently purchased the Adobe system in order to be able to easily convert PDF documents to Word. After successfully enrolling, I got a side screen that provide the steps to make the conversion. It seemed simple enough although I kept getting error messages and was unable to process the task.  What am I missing?

    Click Settings to turn on optical character recognition (OCR) if your PDF contains scanned text.
    Name the Word file and save it in a desired location.

  • I was able to open a pdf document but was unable to save to my computer.  I have adobe acrobat pro x

    I was able to open a pdf document but was unable to save to my computer.  I have adobe acrobat pro xi.  the message i received was.  "the document could not be saved.  there was a problem reading the document (8)."
    I was able to convert it to a Word document  and then save, but I should not have to do that.

    Did you try a Save As? What OS? Have you updated Acrobat?
    Another alternative is to print to a new PDF. That is probably a better work flow than going to WORD and back.

  • When I open a pdf document from my dropbox to view it, the document shows up blank, even though it is filled out. This also happened with pdf documents that have been e-mailed to me.

    When I open a pdf document from my dropbox to view it, the document appears blank, even though I know the information is actually there. This also has happened with pdf documents that have been e-mailed to me, then opened to view and they are blank?? Why are they showing up blank?

    When I open emails with PDFs I click on the attachment (doing this all on my iPad) it gives me the option to "open in iBooks", I accept then after that the document is sucked into my iPad but I can't do anything with the PDF after that.  Where is the actual file on my iPad? Why can't I email or send these PDFs to my cloud (Dropbox)?
    It's like once they go into iBooks they're stuck forever.

  • I am having problems with the Preview application.  When I try to use it to open a pdf document it gets hung-up and I have to select force quit to close it.   Any ideas on how to resolve this problem?  Thanks for any help

    Can you open the Preview program without loading a file, like by itself?
    If it doesn't load then I suspect a corrupt Preview preference file.
    Deleting the System Preference or other .plist file
    Can you open other files with Preview, like jpg's and images?
    How about other PDFs? or is it just that one you have downloaded?

  • When I try to open Adobe Acrobat XI Pro it just freezes, it also freezes when opening a PDF document. What can be done to resolve this or troubleshoot this?

    Adobe Acrobat Pro XI is having some issues. When just the base program opens it freezes before I can even do anything with preferences. The same thing happens when I open a PDF document from anywhere. I have cleared the %temp% directory and repair installed the program with no success in finding a resolution to this issue. I have removed Adobe AIR as a thread indicated that this program could be the cause of some issues. I even restarted the print spooler as that was mentioned in a different post on Adobe Support Forums.

    I would suggest rebooting (particularly if you have not) and log in as the administrator. Also, it sounds like you can open Acrobat, but then it locks up when you try to do the preferences. So in that case go to Help>Repair and apply that. Then repeat the process with Help>Updates to get current. See if that resolves the issues. Since you mentioned %temp%, I assume you are on a windows machine, but which one?

  • Can I open embedded PDF documents in a PDF file on an iPad or Android?

    Not sure if first post got through, the forum required me to change password ...
    So I'm trying to open embedded PDF documents in a "parent" PDF document on an iPad. 
    On a PC the file opens fine.
    On an iPad 2 with Adobe's Reader the same file says it's corrupted.
    On PDF Pro the file opens, I can see the listing of embedded PDF documents but when I click on them nothing happens.
    Is there a way for a PDF file with embedded hyperlinked PDF documents to be displayed on an iPad or Android?

    pages on the iOS has access only to the camera roll to embedd pictures , but no external files.
    Content from other documents like pdf can be copied and pasted by using Adobe Reader for iOS or the iBooks.app, open the pdf , copy text , then go to pages.app and paste text into the document there.
