Hi sugarplum,
Are you using our ExportPDF online subscription to perform this task? http://exportpdf.acrobat.com/signin.html
Here is a helpful 'getting started' guide as well. http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-2412
Looking forward to hearing back from you!

  • Can't convert .pdf file to Word

    Hi There
    I'm trying to convert a PDF file which is 99MB in size to Word, and every time I try it tells me that "An error occurred while trying to acccess the service".
    It does take about 15 to 20 mins to show this error.
    It doesn't tell me anything else, and I can't find a way to get it to work.
    I have also tried turning off the 'Disable Text Recognition' as described in another thread but the error was the same.
    The PDF Producer is 4110 and the PDF Application is also 4110.
    I also tried to upload the file to the location https://files.acrobat.com but it seems to get to the end but then the message says 'There are currently no files in Acrobat.com.
    Please help me with this issue.
    Thanks,
    Hopster

    Hi There,
    I have just tried the same tests from a different network but the results are the same.
    Regardless of whether I turn off the option 'Disable Text Recognitiont or not I get the same error "An error occurred while trying to acccess the service".
    Also when I tried to export it online I also get an error that there was an unexpected problem.
    Any other ideas?

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

  • 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.

  • 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,

  • 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.

  • How can I convert .pdf file to .doc using the free adobe reader app? when I try to convert the .pdf file it asks me to sign in. when I click on "sign in", I am taken to a service subscription page. So, no free conversions using free adobe reader app?

    As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
    What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF  to Word export.
    There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.

  • 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?

  • 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.
