  • Unable to convert PDF files to any other file format using Acrobat XI Pro

    Acrobat XI Pro ver11.0.2
    Office 2013 Pro Plus
    Windows 8 Pro
    When I open a PDF file and try to export file to: Word, RTF, Excel, XML or PowerPoint, I woud receive the error below.
    Save As failed to process this document. No file was created.
    I recall in the past that I was able to export PDF to Excel & Word.  I simply tried the other file formats to see what happens.
    Unfortunately for me, this is happening to both of my machines.  Same version software except the other machine is Windows 7 Pro. I have admin level rights to both PCs.
    Not sure what to do at this point.
    As another test, I did the following.
    Created a document in Word, then saved as a PDF file.  Opened that PDF file to save as a Word doc and I received the error listed above.
    Any suggestions are appreciated.
    Thank you

    Thank you for the suggestions
    "Created a document in Word, then saved as a PDF file.  Opened that PDF file to save as a Word doc and I received the error listed above".
    I used another machine.  Created a Virtual Machine with Office 2013 and Acobat XI and I do not have issues with converting PDF to any of the available formats.  Its not the file I'm using, its the software itself that is the issue.
    Unfortunately, I did uninstall Office 2013 & Acrobat XI then reinstalled but I still have the problem so I can only guess once its broken in the registry, I will continue to have an issue.
    For now, I'm going to move Acrobat XI on the VM since I dont have time to reinstall Windows 8. 

  • Converting PDF's to Text

    I have a huge collection of documents I want to digitize. I just bought an Epson scanner, so I can scan the documents in a variety of formats, including .jpg, .tiff and pdf. Unfortunately, I can't get the OCR software that came with the scanner (ABBYY FineReader Sprint) to work.
    Then I remembered seeing PDF converters online, so I figured I could just scan everyrthing as a PDF, then convert it to text. But I'm confused. I tried Adobe Acrobat's export function, but that didn't do anything. I read that you can open a PDF in Preview and copy the text, but that doesn't work.
    It sounds like there are two ways to create a PDF. With OCR software you can create a text-PDF, whereas I apparently have a scanned-image-PDF, if I understand correctly.
    Anyway, I'm confused. Can anyone recommend a software program or online service that will convert PDF's to text on a Mac? I'm also interested in learning how to batch process PDF's. I'm going to have hundreds of documents, maybe a few thousand.
    Thanks for any tips.

    Since being able to scan combined with OCR will be the easiest approach, getting the OCR software to work would seem to be the best solution. Which version of FineReader Sprint do you have? There's a version in the App Store (https://itunes.apple.com/app/abbyy-finereader-express/id412310371?mt=12) which is supposed to be compatible with Lion and Mountain Lion and if that's not the version you have, perhaps you can upgrade to it. Check out http://www.abbyy.com/checkforupdates/?PartNumber=71817&product=FineReader%20Expr ess%20Edition%20for%20Mac which might do the trick.
    Unless the scanning process has the OCR step built in, what you'll get is an image, usually JPG, which can be turned into a PDF file but it's still just a picture. If you could turn it into a PDF that has actual text in it, then you can get into text extraction. There are a number of programs which are supposed to be able to do that. The only one I've tried that works pretty well is MS Word in the Office 2013 suite for Windows. I have it running in a Windows 8 Virtual Machine on the Mac, but that's a long and expensive way around to begin to do what you need.

  • Convert pdf to excel, wanted to see if it worked before subscribing.

    And I did not want to send it to the cloud but rather keep the test on my own machine.  Tried save as but it does not give the option to save as excel.

    Hi rmullen,
    Adobe doesn't offer free trials of its Acrobat.com online services. But, if you do decide to try it out, and it doesn't suit your needs, you may cancel within the first 30 days for a full refund.
    If you want to convert PDF files to Excel without doing so via the cloud, then you would want to use Acrobat (not Reader), which does allow you to save directly to Excel format (and others) on your desktop.

  • Just downloaded adobe XI trial and can not convert pdf to word, says trial is period over

    just downloaded adobe XI trial and can not convert pdf to word, says trial is period over. what can i do

    For some reason this seems to happen to some. It may be that you have a date issue on the machine and Acrobat noted it. By the way, Adobe is the name of the company, not a product.
    I have no idea how Adobe sets and tracks the trial information. It may be there is something else that has caused an issue and Acrobat thinks you have already had the trial on the system and uninstalled it. As far as I know, there is nothing you can do. You might be able to check with sales to see if there is a work-around, but users can do nothing to help you.
    Sorry, hope you can find a way to test the product. It might also be related to the version of Windows that you did not state.

  • I bought your program to convert PDF files to WORD doc. files. I did this and when I send the files as an attachment to recipients the recipients say the attachment is blank! I want a refund!!

    I bought this Adobe program to convert PDF files to Word doc. files so I could e-mail them as an attachment to people who do not have Adobe Reader. When the people got my e-mail with the attachment and opened it. The attachment was BLANK!! Is there a way to correct this?? or should I just get my money back and cancel this program?

    Hi bogy,
    How very frustrating! I'm sorry that your email attachment was blank. I'm sure this is a silly question, but did the Word file display as expected on your own machine? If not, then the issue is quite likely with the conversion from PDF to Word (but what you describe isn't a common issue that we're hearing about).
    If it looks OK for you, then I suspect the issue lies outside of ExportPDF. If the Word doc is blank when you open it, then please tell me a bit more about the PDF that you're trying to convert and we will take it from there.

  • 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.
    Be well...

  • Need to convert pdf to word

    need to convert pdf to word

    Hi gurpreetkhalsa,
    To convert a PDF file to Word format, you need ExportPDF, Adobe PDF Pack, or Acrobat. Which option you choose depends on whether you need additional features--ExportPDF is the most basic option, and offers the ability to convert to Word, Excel, or RTF.

  • Need to Convert PDF to doc in Russian, why programm do not recognice it?

    Need to Convert PDF to doc in Russian, why programm do not recognice it?

    Hi alsu22,
    The OCR system that converts documents does not recognize any cyrillic languages, such as Russian.  If the text is already renderable (selectable), you may want to try converting your document without the OCR function enabled. You can find steps here: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-3062

  • I have subscribed to convert PDF to Excel and Word, I have followed your instructions and I get an error message all the time.

    I have subscribed to convert PDF file to an Excel or Word . I have followed your instructions to do so but I always get an error message. I have chated with one representative who suggested that I wait 24h before I try it again implying that my subscription is in process. the time span has elapsed and when i try it, I still get the error message. HELP ME or REFUND me the money

    "an error message" really doesn't tell us much.

  • Any way to help me convert PDF format to word(.doc) on Mac

    Hi,guys.Is there any one tell me how to convert PDF to word on Mac?
    I am a middle school teacher.Recently I have a download some PDF file need to transfer to word as material for my working.As I use Mac OS has been doubly difficult for me,beacuse I am not familiar with mac system.
    So any idea helpfully would be appreciated.

    There is a very simple method and doesn't require new software.
    Open a new Word document
    Open the PDF in Preview (i.e., double click or right click and open with ... Preview)
    Using the TEXT tool (button labeled "A') highlight the text you want to copy, then copy (i.e. Edit ... Copy, or right click .... Copy, or Command+C)
    Paste the text into a Word document, and it will be editable.
    If you want to copy the entire contents, you can use Command+A to select all contents, then copy and paste to Word document.
    Preview actually works much better than Acrobat Professional in this respect because you don't carry over junk code from PDF.

  • PDF Watermark - logo image is not displayed in ibr converted pdf

    Hi
    I have enabled pdf watermark administration and configured image watermark with rule, if the content type is document then the image watermark is to be applied but it is not displayed to the converted word document to pdf by IBR.
    If i change image watermark layer to "over", then image watermark is displayed, but word are displayed under the logo image watermark, so it is difficult to study the document.
    If the native file is pdf, then its image watermark is working fine.
    Thanks
    Deepak

    Hi ,
    I think this could be caused by the following :
    Check the factor set for Transparency and if it is completely opaque (Transparency =0%) then the converted PDF's will not show watermarks which has Layer set to UNDER.
    To get the watermarks displayed PPT's will need to be set to Transparency = 100% .
    The intention of the UNDER watermarking layer is that it should appear"behind" whatever is in the content layer.If the content layer completely covers the page and is opaque, then nothing behind it will be visible,including watermarks.The only reasonable solution is to check the above mentioned value before submitting the PPT's for conversion so that users are aware of this behavior for PPT's
    The above description if for PPT's where in this was found to be caused by the transparency factor of native PPT . If it is a word document then check for the same setting and set to 100% , then test .
    Hope this helps .
    Thanks,
    Srinath

  • How can I convert pdf to excel in bulk?

    I can only find a way to do this one file at a time, but I have dozens of pdf files that need to be converted, is there an easier way to do this??
    Thanks

    Hi alc136,
    It's not possible to batch convert pdf files to excel. You need to do it individually.
    It is though possible to batch create pdf from multiple files.
