when I convert to word from pdf the text comes out garble please advise?

Hey Mario,
Please let me know what Acrobat version are you using.
Does this happen with all PDF files or any specific one? How are you trying to convert the PDF to word?
You might try repairing Acrobat and then check.
Hope to hear from you.

Creating option (radio) buttons from Word to PDF (Acrobat Pro)

Hello,
I have a word document with form elements (from the form toolbar). After converting this file into a pdf with the acrobat pro add-in I make a interactive pdf with "form field recognition" (in German: "Formularfelderkennung ausführen") of the form menu.
So far so good.
But I want to use option buttons, too, not only checkboxes. In Word these option buttons are available only through the toolbar "control element toolbox" (in German: "Steuerelement-Toolbox"). But these elements are not recognized by the above mentioned Acrobat option.
So, how can I do this without creating these option buttons by hand in Acrobat Pro?
Thanks, Carlos

Is it a Designer or Acrobat created form?

Acrobat 9 Pro (not Standard) can export ("convert") PDF to Word, RTF, or other text formats.
Click-path: File - Export
Take your pick.
With install of Acrobat 9 the Help PDF is installed also.
From the this PDF's Bookmarks expand Chapter 5's bookmark and select "Convert PDFs to Word".
Be well...

I cannot print a PDF from Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader with Mavericks!

I cannot print a PDF from Adobe Acrobat Pro or Adobe Reader. I tried on both MacBook Pros we have here, both now with Mavericks. Error message says "Opening printer connection failed. Unable to open printer connection . . . " This is after it says sending data, printing, shows the percentages etc., but then at the end I get the error message above. I can print a PDF (same one) from Preview, but not from Acrobat! What's going on? Never had this issue before Mavericks . . . Please help.

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.

Hi M & B P,
Please give the following a try:
If you're converting via the ExportPDF website, log out, clear the cache, and then log back in.
If you're converting from within Reader, choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version.
Please let us know how it goes. If you're still having problems, please let us know how you're converting, what browser you're using, and whether you're on Mac OS and Windows. We'll do some deeper digging if need be.
Best,
Sara

PDFs from Adobe Acrobat Pro not printing with Yosemite

I am unable to print PDFs from Adobe Acrobat Pro 11.0.09 since installing Yosemite 10.10. I have been check-marking "print as image," which worked previous to Yosemite.
I am now printing via the Apple Preview, but despite selecting 1 copy, it is printing 10 of everything.

Hi,
IO must say, it seems to work now without me having to tick the Print as Image box.
This is my version:
Architecture: i386
Build: 11.0.9.29
AGM: 4.28.138
CoolType: 5.11.136
JP2K: 2.0.0.32097

Permission error in opening word 7file in acrobat pro

I can create a pdf from within word 7 but can't open the file from within acrobat pro 9. When I sent the document in they said it wasn't run through distiller. When I open distiller and open the file I get a non-standard error, content flushed, no output. My word 7 documents are saved as docx - do they have to be post script?? I'm totally confused with acrobat. I've read the help files - but when I follow the instructions nothing changes. I don't have any passwords or permissions set - why does it say I don't have permission to open the file? I'm the only person using this computer and program. I bought this program specifically to "distill" my word files and can't seem to figure out how to do that.
Thanks!

I submitted an acrobat pdf from the pdfmaker in word. Was told it didn't look like it had been distilled. I think I'm pretty clear now on the extent of the pdfs and the distill is to ensure everything is print ready. I naively thought a pdf was a pdf and it took everything and"boxed" it so it printed out on the other end just like it did on my end.
Let me see if I'm following you now. I prepare a document in word 7. Print it to the adobe pdf printer. When it opens in acrobat, ctrl D gives me the information.....acrobat distiller 9.2.0, PScript 5.dll ver5.2.2. This document has been "distilled", right? As opposed to the same document made into a pdf by using the acrobat pdf maker in word. When I open it in acrobat, ctrl D gives me this information.....Acrobat pdf maker 9.1 for Word, Adobe pdf library 9.0, pdf version 1.5. This document has not been "distilled", correct?
A doc, docx or one saved as a pdf file using the adobe pdf maker cannot be opened in distiller?
In Acrobat Distiller I found a couple of help guides that look to be more informative - though complicated to understand. I had a couple of transparancies - I assume these were the images where I had erased the background and put them on a transparent background -- or the text boxes I've since learned not to use. Transparancies are addressed on page 38 - but over my head. Is there an easier explanation to be found someplace on how to preprare non-text items?
And one more if I may. Some of my images were converted using RGB, convert to BW, instead of grayscale. I see several "colors" came up. Using Preflight can I convert all these to grayscale within acrobat or should I redo every image in grayscale individually?This is an instruction manual so is image heavy.
Thanks for your patience, I really want to learn this if I can find instructions I can understand

When upgrading from Abobe Acrobat Pro 9 to XI, is it possible to save Headers and Footers in documents?

I support a law firm that users headers and footers in their documents. They are upgrading from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 to XI. when they did an install on one PC, the headers and footers in a PDF did not show and had to be recreated. Is there a way around that? I's appreciate any input.
Thanks!
Ed

This is a work around. Bring the pdf into Illustrator. Go to Select >Object>Text. In the attributes panel, deselect Overprint. In the Transparency panel, select Knockout Group. In the Appearance panel, check to make sure the black is not overprinting by clicking on the Character entry. If not, try clicking "Clear Appearance" (here I got a little lost.
Resave the pdf file. Your black text should now knock out. You may have to retrap, unless your RIP does that for you.
Hope this helps. (I had to keep trying to get it to work, but I finally did.

Why can I not download a converted file (xl from pdf)?

I have a converted file (XL from PDF) but I cannot download it. Never before had a problem. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Peter,
I'd like to assist!
What is happening when you try to convert from PDF to Excel? Are you receiving a specific error message? Was the file an Excel doc prior to being converted to PDF?
Looking forward to hearing back from you.
Kind regards, Stacy

Printer hangs from Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.1.2

Windows 7 x64
HP Color Laserjet 5550 PCL 5 over TCP/IP Port
Printer hangs for a very long time and then generates an error, but no record of it in Printer event log. The spooling size of the PDF is also incredibly large compared to the actual size of the document. This problem has just emerged after the upgrade from Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.
Help!

Have you checked to see if this might be related to duplex being automatically selected in the printing dialog in version 10.1.2? To turn it off try the following:
Open the PDF you want to print.
Click the Print icon to open the Print dialog box.
Click Size, and then deselect Print On Both Sides Of Paper.
It's a known issue with the 10.1.2 update.

Cannot print double-sided from Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2

Cannot print double-sided from Adobe Acrobat Professional 8.1.2
Problem limited to Adobe Acrobat, MS Office 2008, Pages, Keynote.
Can print double-sided from Safari and Mac Mail
Using HP Color LaserJet 2605dtn. Have downloaded most recent driver from HP
Computer: Apple MacPro Tower, 6GB 800 MHz DDR2 FB-DIMM, Quad-Core Intel Xeon, Processor speed = 3.2 GHz

Correct way to install new driver is go to Printer Utility and delete That printer from the list.
Then install the new driver.
Then go back to Printer Utility and add the new driver Back
Then go to systems preferences and to Print Fax (or Printer if no longer setup for fax) and set up for the the printer and set as default.
This way you shouldn't have to go into either print menu or Page setup menu and set for desired printer.
most hp printer in the pint menu you click copies and pages and mouse down to two sided pages you choose either book (facing pages) or Tablet (printed as you would a Tablet that's bound at the top.
you need to test a two page document to see which does correctly for you. Its best never to have the application set for two sided. in fact if you have set for two sided in both one counter acts the the other.
So set it only in the printer menu and no where else.
Also once you set up you can save printer profiles that you can go back to click on the Presets button mouse down to very bottom save with a anme you can remember even put the words two-sided in title then save. Then you can go to that preset and print your heart out.
