Convert from PDF to doc format

Try to convert IRS Form 1099 to document format getting error that file cannot be converted please help.

Hi wlunchmeat,
IRS form 1099 is created with the help of LC Designer which is used to create the XFA(XML Form Architecture). ExportPDF would not be able to convert these kind of forms as it tends loose the important data from the form.

Time Out Issue When Converting from PDF to .doc or .dox format

I have a couple of PDF documents that I'm trying to convert to word doc (doc or dox) format. I subscribe to the online Adobe Export PDF. The export always times out. The PDF is 18.08 MB. Does anyone have have any suggestions?

Hi riversideredhead63,
Are you able to convert other PDFs without issue? Here are a few things to try for starters:
Clear your browser cache (steps vary by browser).
If you're using a work computer, check with your IT team to confirm if you have firewall/proxy settings that restrict the ability to upload files to the Internet.
Try another web browser. A list of supported browsers for accessing the ExportPDF service is available here: http://www.adobe.com/acom/systemreqs/
If those don't work, please get back to us. It would be helpful to know what sort of content is in the PDF file that you're trying to convert, and what application created the PDF. (If you don't know, choose File > Properties in Reader. The source application is listed in the middle of the dialog box.)
I look forward to hearing back from you.
Best,
Sara

Problem converting from pdf to doc (encrypted or corrupt file?)

Hi everyone.
I need to convert my resume (pdf) to doc so I can make a couple of edits, and then convert it back to pdf. Problem is, I can't seem to do it. I first tried straight from the program in adobe by saving the file as a doc, but the file formating was way too screwed up when I did that.
So, I then googled around, and found zamzar.com. I tried that site, but kept getting conversion errors which said "file may be encrypted, password protected, or corrupt". I don't have any passwords or encryptions on it, so I tried downloading other conversion programs, but I kept getting the same types of errors.
I checkd the "security properties" for the file, and I don't have anything. I also don't know how the file could be corrupt since I don't have any issues viewing it, and when I sent it to my friend via email, he was able to open it, too.
Ihave recently been using Acrobat 9 pro extended version that I downloaded as a torrent from a reputable person. I just wanted to get a feel for the program, but maybe this is the problem, since any pdf I've saved since I began using it, seems to have that conversion issue, but I figure there has to be a workaround. I really don't know what the issue is, or how I can solve it, and so I'm stumped.
Any suggestions would be really great.
Thanks a lot.

How do I maintain column formatting when converting from PDF to Excel?

How do I maintain column formatting when converting from PDF to Excel? All info is no longer on the lines or in the columns they started out being in? Any help would be appreciated.

Sara,
Perhaps I am expecting too much from Adobe ExportPDF. The reason I subscribed to this service, for which I pay a yearly fee, was that I need a way to convert scanned and digital documents to Word &/or Excel. I read the link you included but to be candid the more I tried to understand what was written the more confused I got. The process should not be this difficult. Currently I am using a NEAT scanner to create PDF documents of whatever I scan. After I changed the OCR setting on Adobe ExportPDF the output was much better but not to the point it was usable as it was. Information that appears to be lines and columns are sometimes not recognizing two columns and just putting them together in one. Obviously not usable. The other thing it does is bunch numbers that appear in a column that are just a bunch of numbers that I have no way of fixing.
Please let me speak to someone who can help me. Right now I not getting anything of value in my paid subscription.

How to download a page in pdf or doc format

Hi,
I want to download a content of page in pdf or doc format through a button.
How can I acheive it.
I created a salary page and now want to download this page directly in pdf or doc format, how to do it.
Using Peopltools 8.49
PS HRMS 9.0
plz help.
Many thanks...

The entire solution would be too large and complex to post. Here are some pointers to get you going. One alternative is to use BI/XML Publisher to create the output document and launch it from a button on the page (PeopleCode and Derived/Work record). Another alternative is to use Apache POI to generate a doc and iText to generate PDF. Customers have used all of these approaches.

I was informed i need to purchase standard 11 or standard 12 (?) in order to make word files converted from pdf editable. how do i do this?

i was informed i need to purchase standard 11 or standard 12 from adobe in order to make files converted from pdf to word using the recently bought and installed adobe pdf exporter file. how/where do i do this?

Currently the Acrobat version is "XI" (no "12").
With Acrobat XI installed:
"File - Save As Other" --- from here you pick the supported file format for the export.
If a PDF has content that is the output of a scanner then that output (as is the case for All scanners' output) is a picture of text and not real text.
During an export all that can be processed is the picture. As a picture of text is not text it is understandable why Word (or other word processors) cannot edit the content.
So, for such, prior to export run Acrobat's OCR and save.
The export will be of the OCR content.
Do expect to do clean of the text, spelling, punctuation, layout etc.
This may be minor. This may be major. But, there will be some.
Adobe as some online subscription services that can take a "proper" PDF (NOT all are eh) and export to supported file formats.
Two are "ExportPDF" and "PDF Pack".
Be well...

How do I fill out a form already converted from pdf to word

how do I fill out a form i converted from pdf to a word doc?

What kind of "form" is it? A .pdf or .doc file?
Generally I would save the file somewhere (desktop or document folder). There is a save button for attachments in mail's header section. Then open the file with an appropriate app like Adobe Reader for .pdf files or Word or Pages for .doc files. Fill out the form and save. Then email the form back as an attachment.

Converting from PDF to MS Word back to PDF

We have documents that are in PDF that need to be updated. We have discovered that when converting from PDF to MS Word and then back to PDF - the formatting is lost in the process.
Is there a way to maintain the formatting? Or, can you edit directly in PDF? Or - will we have to create all new master MS Word documents for future updates?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
David Jenkins

You should create master documents in WORD for all documents that you want to update. If you use PDF Maker, the conversion back is a bit more smooth since the structure information is included in the PDF as tags. However, the PDF make end up bloated as a result. You should consider a PDF the electronic equivalent of a piece of paper. If you were to correct paper you would use white-out. If you were to convert it back to WORD, you would scan it, OCR and hopefully have a reasonable result in WORD. You can typically do better with a PDF than with paper, but the concept is still the same. You should never consider creating a PDF as a master document, but always keep the original.
What needs to be done now (if someone deleted all of the originals) is to convert them back and then fix the formating and such. Graphics will typically convert back OK, but maybe not in exactly the way you wanted. Sometimes, you can use export all images (Advanced>Document Processing in AA8) to save the images in the quality you might like.
Editing can be done in a PDF, but should only be for minor corrections. Sometimes, even the minor corrections are a pain. In such cases, you should always work on a copy so you can always go back.
So the answers to what you asked are: 1) with PDF Maker, but not perfect; 2) minor edits, possibly painful; 3) You should create all new master WORD documents and not delete them in the future - not required, but a best route.

How do I convert from pdf to word? I see an option to do so, however, when I click on it, Ia box opens...

when I try to convert from pdf to word, a box opens and suggests I am to click on (select) the file I want to convert. It sounds all well but it does not work. I really really just want my files back in word, all of them, no matter, because after having to reinstall windows 7 (done by techs) and me having to re-download all my HP drivers, and tools, and other software, which I imagine included adobe reader, now I see some pdf files won't open. It says, "access denied" and boy that really makes me wantt o scream. I am the ONLY user, it is my notebook, I am the administrator so I can't figure out why some files open and some don't. I can't ascertain any difference.
I would be grateful for any help. This has become just too exhausting. After reinstalling sooooooooo much, then to have to go through this with what is a free application? I say I think not.
This should NEVER happen with any free application and boy there is NO help to be found. They blow you off the phone fast telling you it's a free application. Then why are you putting in this kind of stuff that it won't open? This is NOT a shared notebook, it's mine. I am the only user, personal use.
HP probook, if anyone needs that info.
Please, will someone help?
I would be so grateful.
thanks,
Gina

Gee, Pat, this is a real big help.
Nobody could possibly think anyone would ask for help without first trying to fix the issue oneself. Or maybe you do. I have opened the file and looked under security. I have changed it to owner-notebook (which is what the techs called me) and clicked accept but geepers it didn't work.
Maybe someone else has an idea.
Take Ownership of a File or Folder
The above should be a link. At least I copied and pasted the link. I did what was stated in there. It isn't like brain surgery. But it is not working. I ended up being able to open some pdf files after transferring them from one partition category to another. I wish it was that easy as you seem to think.
Thanks for the help. Have a great year.

How do I convert from PDF to Word step by step instructions needed..am practically computer illiterate

How do I convert from PDF to Word step by step instructions needed..am practically computer illiterate@

Ok, fine. That isn't Acrobat, and that's why our instructions weren't much use. (But it's worth saying "I didn't have that option" rather than "it's not converting", we could end up wasting a lot of your time with the wrong stuff!)
Anyway, the free Adobe Reader can't do this conversion without a subscription called either ExportPDF or PDF Pack. You may have had one in the past. Are you still paying for one?

Why am I only given the option to create a pdf when I want to convert from pdf to word document? My plan is the PDF pack.

You need to click on Export PDF to convert from PDF to word document.
