Changing a PDF to a word.doc

Hi im trying to save a file on safari that is from a uni intranet(lecture notes) so that i can view it in word or powerpoint inorder to adjust the text and pic sizes so that when printed they are easier to view. The problem i have is that the saved files won't open in either poerpoint or word any suggestions?

Hi & Welcome to Apple Discussions,
Try dragging & dropping the saved PDF to a Textedit page, I just did it & it
worked beautifully.
Also more info about your comuter posted on the bottom of your post would be even better in Discussions>My Computer.
There is also some info about Powerpoint in Dis. I will find & post back.
Hope this help you.

    Hi patm23422687,
    I hope by saying 'installed the software', you mean that Acrobat XI is now installed on your computer.
    Now, open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat and choose "File> Save as Other> Microsoft Word"
    This is all you need to do
    Please try and let me know if you need further assistance.

  • Font changes when i try to create a pdf from a word doc

    I am trying to create a pdf from a word doc. I have tried multiple times and each time i do the font i used in the word doc gets changed on the pdf

    This seems to be a common problem... this is not the first time I have seen this. Unless it is a general system font, such as Arial, then it seems not to convert too well.
    So, if it doesn't matter what font, then just change the font.
    Hopefully, Adobe fixes this in the next year. xD
    Good luck

  • Is there a way to change PDF files to Word Doc on my iPad? I subscribed to it.

    I just subscribed the converting PDF file to Word doc. But I would like to use my iPad for this. Does anyone know how to do it?

    For starters, you can take a look at the Help document in Adobe Reader for iOS.
    Go to Reader's home screen.
    Tap Help (in the lower left corner).
    Tap Handbook (in the right pane).
    Select "Acrobat.com and the Cloud".
    The page describes various operations (Logging in, Exporting PDFs, etc.).
    Please let us know if you have any specific questions.

  • How to open and read pdf and micrsoft word (.doc) files or documents

    My problem is how to use my BB 9800 software version 6.0.0.546 to read/view pdf files and microsoft office documents. I have also bought documents to go from online and have installed it on my phone, but whenever i try to open it I receive a message that it is incompactible. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Hi, Sammy.
    Why not install a 3rd party PDF reader and Word Doc reader to help open and read pdf and micrsoft word (.doc) files or documents? You can google it and select one whose way of processing is simple and fast to help you with the related converting work.  It will be better if it is totally manual and can be customized by users according to our own favors. Remember to check its free trial package first if possible. I hope you success. Good luck.
    Best regards,

    Why is does my apple run SLOW.you go to open a program and the circle thing just spins for a delayed period of time.  You change from typing in a word doc and go to say email or internet and it takes several minutes to allow you open anything up.  Like it is frozen.  I have tried rebooting the computer and it works for a few minutes then gets stuck.

  • Problems with saving pdf as a word doc

    hello, i
    recently upgraded to acrobt x pro, and i went to convert a one-page pdf into a word doc.  i went to "file,"
    "save as," "word document, and when i went to view
    the word doc, the format/layout/font, etc. was completely garbled.  what could i be doing wrong?  thanks!

    Your problem is likely with the PDF not having the tags that provide the format information you are expecting. Such information is not needed for the PDF, but is used for the conversion back to WORD. You could try converting a file from DOC to PDF and back to DOC with both a print to the Adobe PDF printer and PDF Maker to get the format info. See how they compare and you should get the idea.

  • Creating a pdf from a word doc and the image and footer will not show

    I am trying to create a pdf from a word doc that has an image and footer. Neither will show in the pdf. Also getting this message "Adobe Acrobat Updater has not been able to check for updates recently. Check online to see if solutions are available from the Adobe website." My Cloud says it is updated.

    What was the Original?
    If it was from Word, chances are the top and bottom Margins were set too narrow. (should not be less than .5 inches even more safety 1" would be better). As for graphics. Check in Word preferences (may be called different in a windows machine) make sure in view and Print settings "Graphics" is checked (show Graphics and Print Graphics).

  • How do I change a PDF to a word document?

    How do i change aa PDF to a word document?

    In Mac preferred method (because it uses Adobe's PDF engine):
    Save file as word Document (for Backup)
    Go to Print Menu
    Click and hold on PDF button until context menu appears
    Choose Adobe PDF
    Wait for menu to change - choose quality (this eqivelent to job options in Distiller) and turn off open with Reader (or Acrobat)
    Then click okay to go to nex window item
    Either use Title assigned or change (I usually remove references to Microsoft Word-, and .docx so it just shows as for example Joes.pdf),
    Browse (pick out) to desired save Location.
    Click Save.
    Go to location saved and open.
    Notes: Expect to multiple PDF if the Word document page have switches in Page orientations.
    URL links won't cme over with this method.
    To have Urls to be active (except those created with the Format menu > URL)
    Do the following:
    Locate the Word Document
    Locate the acrobat Icon on the Dock (similar to Start up menu on PC)
    Drag the word document to the icon of Acrobat on Dock and Drop
    Wait ........... You might have enough time to boil you a pot of coffee
    When PDF pops up on screen save at once!
    You will now have a document that will have live MailTo's and URL's except for those created with the URL wizard ( select desired word> go to Formtat menu > URL >when opens type desired URL or Mailto)
    This is a 15 year old bug Adobe refuses to fix. Don't bleive the blather the put out bout the proper hook in Mac Version That's been proven as false years ago.
