Word documents won't convert when combining

Similar to a problem from another post, Word documents will not convert when combining files. I’m only combining a few files at a time—when placed first, the Word document will stall at 10% converted. When placed anywhere else, it skips with an error saying it's unable to open the file, "please check to see if [ I ] have read permission for the...file." (It's my computer; who do I have to ask?) Other files convert/combine just fine (.png, jpeg’s.) I’m using a 32 bit version of XP and I do have the pdf converter from Word installed as an add in. Very annoying problem. Can anyone help?
Thanks

If you upgrade word the documents switch from .doc to .docx

  • Trying to converting fillable word documents to fillable pdf-when opening in Reader, no longer fillable

    I am converting fillable word documents (set up as tables with protection activated) into fillable pdf forms using LiveCycle but am having problems once I try to open them in Adobe Reader 9.2. I am unable to save the pdf as dynamic (the only option is static). They are no longer fillable and show "You are viewing this document in PDF/A mode".  Any advise...what am I doing wrong?

    Hi,
    I have the same problem.
    I check my settings and I don't ask a PDF/A files. It's a PDF standard.
    Have someone a solution ?
    Thanks a lot for your help

  • Just updated to Lion.  Didn't realize things like reading a Word document would not be supported.  How do I get these files back and how I do read them going forward?  When a PC user sends me a word document won't I be able to open it and read it?

    Just updated to Lion today, 11/22/11.  I did not realize things likes reading a Word document would not be supported.  "You cannot open this because PowerPC applications are no longer supported."  How am I supposed to read and open Word documents from PC users?  Any insight is helpful, thanks!

    You have Word 2004 which is PPC based. Lion is not able to execute PPC code. You have to upgrade. Or you can do as I do an open them in Pages, since I refuse to allow anything from Microsloth on my Mac.

  • Word document won't 'print' to PDF on proper paper size

    I have a document in MS Word that's on a 5.5x8.5 page size. If I do a Save As, the resulting PDF uses the proper paper size, but it also shows color--which I don't want for this particular document.
    When I do Print and choose Adobe PDF, I can choose Black/white which is great, but I'm struggling to get it to use the right paper size. I've tried ever combination I can think of in the Default Setting and Adobe PDF Page Size options, but can't get it to show anything but 8.5x11.
    Any thoughts on how to get the right paper size using Print to PDF?

    Is this a Word document generated by Adobe's RoboHelp product or just a document generated directly in Word?
    If the latter, you are asking in the wrong place. Even if you are using RoboHelp, this looks more like a question to ask in the Acrobat forums.

  • Visio drawings embedded in Word documents don't convert correctly

    Hi,
    Windows XP, with all available patches.
    Word 2007, with all available patches.
    Visio 2002, with all available patches.
    Acrobat X pro (trial at this point) with all available patches.
    I have some long word documents that have many visio drawings embedded within them.  When I try and convert the word document to a pdf using the Adobe Acrobat tab that gets installed within  Word, I find that the document gets converted without any errors, but when I view the document, some of the Visio drawings are not displayed correctly.  In particular, the arrows at the ends of many of the connectors are missing.
    Is this a known problem?  Is there a reasonable workaround available?
    I have tried severl other PDF creators and they work with no problem - the Adobe Acrobat is the only converter I have tried that exhibits this behaviour, and at the moment it is preventing me from buying the full version.
    Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

    Hi ,
    If you look down the reply typing section you will find 'Attach Files' box . You can attach the files there , much like I have done in my previous post .
    If you cannot still do that you may go to acrobat.com ,create a free account (if you don't have already) and upload the files to your account and pass on the Link to the files here on the forums .
    Let me know in case of any issues .
    Thanks,

  • Multi-Section Word Document Won't Save as Single pdf

    I'm using MS Word 2004 and have a document split into 3 sections (so to permit landscape printing of the middle section containg a bunch of big tables, portrait on the two others containg text mostly, before and after).
    When I try to create a pdf within the Word Print Dialog, 3 separate pdfs are created -- one for each section. Is there a way to get it to create just 1 pdf?
    I don't do this sort of thing very often, so hope there is some easy, inexpensive way. I thought about copying the tables and then pasting as a picture, rotating it, but the margins for the middle center section are also different (so to fit the tables).
    Any help or ideas are most appreciated.

  • Link to Word document doesn't refresh when running from Infoview

    I have a report that contains an OLE Object link to a Word Document.  If I modify the document and schedule the report through Infoview, it doesn't pick up the change.  If I refresh the report through Crystal Reports it does pick up the changes.  Any suggestions on how I can get the Infoview scheduled report to pick up the changes?
    Thanks,
    Tony

    Hello Tony and Co-Experts,
    I am facing exactly the problem Tony had:
    - Embedded a Word document as linked OLE object into a crystal report and stored it to Enterprise repository.
    - When opening the report with CR Developer from my workstation, changes in the .doc file are reflected, the report is updated
    - However when displaying and refreshing the report on the BO Server via InfoView changes aren't reflected.
    The OLE link is set to update automatically (under menu edit -> links)
    I tried to store the report to the enterprise repository with and without data. Yet no difference and no update in either case.
    Neither scheduling nor opening and refreshing the report in InfoView helps.
    So what am I doing wrong?
    - On our BO server we have not installed Crystal Reports Developer. Is this a prerequisite for the OLE links to update?
    - And Tony wrote that he could resolve this by changing the logged on user with CR Job Server. Where and how would I change this user?
    - Any other suggestions?
    Many thanks in advance!

  • Error 10660 -- Word documents won't open

    Not sure where to put this. I bought a new MacBook about a month ago and transferred the entire contents of my old iBook to it. Today I can't open any Word documents. I get a message that "the operation could not be completed. An unexpected error occurred (error no. 10660)." I have rebooted twice, but it doesn't help. One of these documents was created yesterday, so this is apparently a very recent problem.
    MacBook   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   512 MB DDR2 SDRAM

    Select one Word document in the Finder, choose Get Info from the File menu. Under Open With, choose the desired application from the list, click on the Change All button, and confirm this action. That error message appears when the default application for a specific type of document is in the Trash or isn't available to the computer.

    Before we go any further, I would like to say that there is no Word 2012 version released before for Microsoft official site.
    If the Word document could still be opened by other machine except for Word 20XX in the
    specific machine, that means the data file itself is fine. But Word 20XX application mighe be corrupted. Repair it and then check the result.

  • Large Word document won't let me work

    I have a very large Word document (322.5 MB) that I need to work on. I think it has a number of pictures or other graphic items in it. I can open it but then Word doesn't respond. It doesn't say the program is not responding, but I can't do anything, even remove the pictures or break up the document into several smaller ones. Any ideas?
