after I converted my hand written PDF doc to a Word Doc the writing is in different symbols- why?

You cannot perform OCR on handwritten text using Adobe Acrobat.

    Hi hamsa142,
    Is this problem specific to one file, or does it happen with any file that you convert to PDF? How was the PDF created (using what application)?

    Hi Cowandmoon,
    From within Adobe Reader, could you try opening Adobe Reader XI and choosing Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Adobe Reader > Preferences (Mac), then select 'Adobe Online Services' from the left-hand side.  Click 'Sign Out...', then sign back in with your Adobe ID and password.
    After this is completed, try choosing the Tools pane again from within Reader to see if you can access your subscription.
    Please let us know how it goes!
    Thanks,

  • 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!
    Regards,
    Judith.

    How do I convert a pdf to Word.  The India support people are of no help!

    Hi John,
    I'd be happy to assist.
    Here is a 'getting started' guide that should be helpful.
    Launch Adobe Reader and open your PDF file
    Select "Tools" and click "Sign In" link to sign in with your Adobe ID and password
    Select "Export PDF"
    Click "Convert" button
    Click "Download Converted File" link to download the exported Word file to your computer.
    Let me know if you have further questions.
    Looking forward to hearing back from you!
    Regards, Stacy

    I have the converter to change pdf to word. Works sometime, other time says conversion is taking too long. Can I get what it has translated so I can use the parts?

    I would ask in the ExportPDF forum, Adobe ExportPDF (read only) (assuming that's the service to which you have subscribed). This is the Reader one.

  • Acrobat only converts the page that is displayed.  How do I export/convert an entire PDF to word or exel?

    I have some huge reports that need to be converted.  This is not a one time thing.
    When I try to export PDF to word, excel, or any format offered, it:
    only saves the headers/footers.
    If I select all; it only saves the page(s) displayed on screen
    How can I convert an entire PDF to word or excel?
    Auto-scrolling is on and that made sadly no difference.
    There are too many pages to put it on 10% and view them all on one screen
    Please help

    Hi, sorry I should have put that in my original post.
    Version: Acrobat XI
    I tried multiple things which included:
    Tools --> Content Editing --> Export File To... [ This saves a blank file ]
    Select All --> Tools --> Content Editing --> Export File To... [ Saves only the page that is displayed on the monitor, the rest is all blank except header and footer ]
    Select All --> File --> Save As --> Excel or Word [ Saves only the page displayed on monitor ]
    File --> Save As --> Excel or Word [ Saves only the page displayed on monitor ]
    Select All --> File --> Save As Other --> Excel or Word [ Saves only the page displayed on monitor ]
    File --> Save As Other --> Excel or Word [ Saves only the page displayed on monitor ]
    Tools --> Edit Text & Images --> Cannot Select All --> Export File To... [ Saves only what is displayed on the monitor ]
    I'll edit and add to my original post if it lets me.

  • I am trying to convert a PDF to Word doc-- it worked previously but now it won't-?

    Trying to convert PDF to Word doc--- was able to do it  before but now nothing shows up when I click on the downloaded file

    Hi asjoseph,
    It sounds like you're reporting two different problems--is that correct? One, that you're unable to convert using ExportPDF, and another that you're trying to open or convert PDF? Is that correct?
    For the first issue, make sure that you're signed in to the ExportPDF service. You can log in directly at cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf.
    For the second part of your question, please tell me a bit more about where that error is occurring, and what steps you're taking before the error appears.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.

  • Converting from PDF to Word doc: Text in Fields disappears. What to do?

    Hi,
    I have a PDF template I filled out, for the cover of my thesis, which included 3 fields.  I am using the trial version of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, and saved the filled in template as a new PDF. So far, so good.  However, I need to covert the PDF into Word. When I do so, and open the new Word doc, the text I filled in is gone.  Help?

    Do you receive that error when you try to sign in via Reader? If so, try signing in via the web interface. Did that do the trick?
