Adobe truncating when converting a document to text

I am using adobe reader 9.0 and when I convert certain pdf document to text the last character of each line is missing from the text file. It appears the last character is being dropped or truncated. Has anyone run into this issue? Are there plans to fix this?

Unfortunately the file contents are sensative; i will try to find an example of a file with less sensative data; however I can tell you the following workaround works for the file.
1)      Open the document in Adobe
2)      Set the document to ‘Click to fill the window with each page and scroll through pages continuosuly’   (this control is the 2nd control to the the left of the ‘FIND’ box)
3)      Select ‘Edit’, ‘Select All’
4)      Ctrl-C (or ‘Edit’, ‘Copy’)
5)      Open your preferred Text editor
6)      Ctrl-V (Paste using the Editor controls of you Text Editor)
7)      The last character, for the last field on the far right of document is in the text document.

When exporting you are given 3 options:

Why doesn't adobe PDF pack convert font jester when converting pub documents to pdf documents?

Why won't adobe PDF pack convert font JESTER from a pub to a pdf file? It converts the JESTER headings to font ARIAL instead. When I was using windows XP and Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional the conversion came across as JESTER like I wanted.

When converting a document to PDF, it won't convert my landscape format !

In Microsoft, when I convert a document that's in landscape format to a PDF, it converts in portrait format. In the PDF I open print, select orientation and/or page setup, change the format but all the text does'nt change back to landscape. How do I get my original format when converting to a PDF ?

This isn't the proper forum for that. This is for the free Reader application which does not convert files to PDF.
Depending on what you actually use to convert to PDF, you may need a Microsoft forum or the Adobe Acrobat forum.

I cannot access Adobe Acrobat to convert a document.

I have signed up for Adobe Acrobat to convert a PDF to a Word document and I have received confirmation of my order. It is asking me to sign up again.
This is an important document and need help now!

Hi TwoMile Girl,
It sounds as though you haven't logged in to the service yet. From the ExportPDF website, click Sign in at the upper-right corner, and log in to the service with your Adobe ID credentials. Now, when you click ExportPDF, you'll be prompted to select PDF files to export, instead of being asked to subscribe.
Please let us know if you need additional help.

Acrobat 10.1.3 Word Crash when converting 2007 document to PDF.

Word 2007 Crashes with the error seen below, when using the Convert to PDF button on the Acrobat ribbon in Word. The document may have footnotes. I can convert other docuemnts to pdf in this fashion. Is there an issue converting Word Docuements to PDF if they have foot notes? I saw a post where someone had a table in a docuemnt that was causing Word to crash when it was converted to PDF in this fashion.

Problem with image location when converting word document to pdf

Hello all,
I am new to all this and this question may be already answered, but when I try to convert a word (2003-2007) document containing images (inserted photos) into a pdf document using Adober Reader 8, the images are moved from their original location and the size and ratio are changed. Is there either a process for preserving the images as they are in the word doucment or a way to fix the problem? Thanks for any help you can give.
Regards,
Rose

Really not sure what you are trying to do since you can not import images into Reader. Since Reader can not create PDFs, we are at a loss of your problem. If you mean Acrobat, then tell us exactly the steps you are using to create the and what versions of both programs Like AA8.1., WORD 2003 (possibly release also) or WORD 2007. The different versions of WORD also also interact with Acrobat differently.

Problem when dispalying Sales document header text.

Hi All,
I am facing problem when displaying header text of Sales document. my problem is that
when we got to VA02 -> give sales document number press enter
once afer going inside that sales document -> Goto Header text . In text tab, on left hand side we can find many text for whch corresponding text has written on Right hand side Text area.
i want that text to be print on script.
i tried even by pressing F1 but i could not find where that text stores in database.
can any one please explain it how to dispaly the text that is written manually in text area on Script.
regards
Prasadh.

Hi,
You must call function module 'READ_TEXT' with the following parameters:
ID = The technical text id number (see table TTXID for OBJECT = 'VBBK' for a list of valid values)
LANGUAGE = your local language
NAME = sales document number (all 10 digits with any leading zeros)
OBJECT = 'VBBK'
You will need to call the function module once per text type id (the list on the left hand side in VA02, header texts screen). The text from the right hand side will be in an internal table LINES after you call the 'READ_TEXT' function module.
If you just want to print directly from VA02, then choose the details button which takes you to another screen with Print functionality.

Images are messed up when converting pages document to .doc

Hello,
I am trying to convert my .pages document to a Word .doc file but when I open it back up the background images are missing most of their color. They are extremely distorted. I took off the option Objects Causes Wrap and removed my margins so I could prevent my content from spilling onto a new page thus creating a new page that I could not delete.
Please help!
Thank you in advance,
V

The conversion isn't perfect between Pages and Word. The same font is handle differently in the two applications and so are many other things too. If you are concerned about how it looks use Pdf versions instead.

Illustrator images with jagged edges when converting a document to pdf

Hi,
Illustrator CS6.
I created some images in illustrator. Saved the images as a .tff. Put the images in a Word.docx. Looks great. Convert the word.docx to a pdf and my images have jagged edges. I have anti-alaising check in my preferences but still the image looks bad.
Any suggestions?
thanks

Did you resize the images larger than when inserted into Word?
What resolution did you export the TIF from AI at?
What was the Anti-aliasing setting (type or art optimized or none)?
Are you using Word's Save As PDF, or the Adobe Acrobat add-on?
Are you viewing the result in Acrobat (or Adobe Reader) at 100% or larger?

Embedded objects when converting a word document

Hello ng,
a word document contains other documents as embedded objects shown as a symbol. When converting this document with Acrobat Standard or Professional the symbols are converted as non functional picture. So the embeddes document can't be opened.
So here's my question: Is it possible to convert embedded objects shown as symbol to functional embedded object within PDF?
Example is shown below.
Many thanks!
Susanne

It cannot be done. For all intents remember that creating the pdf is akin to printing the document out. If you were to print document to your printer, you would not expect to be able to click on the paper to launch the object. Now it is true that one can have things like hyperlinks preserved, but specialized coding was created for this functionality and is not available in all applications nor on all platforms. However, your wish is a reasonable feature request. I suggest you might ask here:

Why are hyperlinks no longer working in PDF, when converted from Word?

I have Acrobat Professional 11 and have recently upgraded my PC with a new operating system (Windows 8). I can't remember how to find out what version of Word I now have, but it should be a fairly recent version, given its new. Since the upgrade, when converting Word documents to PDF using the "Create Form" function in Adobe Pro 11, only full hyperlinks (with the @ symbol) are working in PDF, not other hyperlinks that we've renamed. Under the old operating system, ALL hyperlinks used to transfer & work when converted ... am I missing a checkbox somewhere?? HELP please, I have loads of word documents to convert and it's very time-consuming to have to do weblinks manually!!

First off, Word should show you the version on a splash screen when you launch it.
Also, what happens to the links if you just open the document in Word and save it as a PDF?
