Converting merged Word forms.

Can you convert documents to PDF, that have been "Mail merged" from word as a template  into Access as a completed form. I need to print off 5000+ forms and my print shop needs them to be in .pdf format.

That should be possible, but it may take a while.  There's so many variables that the only way you'll know is to give it a go.

  • I'm having trouble converting a Word Form to a PDF form because the table cells are importing incorrectly. How can I fix it?

    I am converting a form from Word to PDF. The form includes several tables and the tables are converting with weird lines where the corners meet. I've tried everything. I've even retyped a portion of the form and tried importing it but it still had the weird lines. I'd rather not recreate the form in PDF because it's not short and I already have a perfectly good form to import. Any suggestions?

    What version of Word? What version of Acrobat? How exactly are you converting the file?

  • Pls tell me how I can convert a PDF form to a Word doc, and have radio buttons etc work?

    Pls tell me how I can convert a PDF form to a Word doc, and have radio buttons etc work?  My PDF form did convert using Adobe PDF Export.... but the formatting is a schamozzle if I try to do anything with it.  Most importantly, I need the check boxes and radio buttons to work in Word!

    Checkboxes and radio buttons are form objects from Acrobat.  There is no equivalent for these objects, with the way they were constructed, within Word.
    I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

  • Export PDF converts filled PDF form without the data - Turns filled PDF form onto blank Word doc. Is there a solution to this or did Adobe just sell me a service that doesn't work?

    ExportPDF is not for forms. In general, converting forms to Word is a really, really bad idea which can even cause legal problems. Work with the form as a PDF. Acrobat (not Reader) can export form data as simple text for example.

  • Cannot convert my PDF form to Word, even though I purchased Adobe's "Convert to Word" product

    I am trying to fill out a PDF form, but it is apparently "read-only" and I cannot type in my info on the form.  I clicked on the "convert to Word" icon, and I then purchased your product to enable me to change to "Word" so i could type on it, but it is not accepting my user ID and password, although I can sign into your website with my user name and password with no problem

  • URGENT:  convert pdf Form to Word Form

    Ihave a filled in pdf form and a blank form and I need to convert each to a Word form. acro pro 7 If I had vers 8.0 pro,would the steps be any different?
    what is the fastest way to do this? The boss says the pdf form is not flexible enough but I cannot ask her more at this moment.

    As long as you have been using Acrobat, I am surprised that your boss would have such a question. I thought of one possibility if the form fields are not retained in WORD, but don't know if it will work. You could try to save as HTML (I usually have best luck with HTML 3) and then open that in WORD. That might give you a back door to keep the form fields in much the same way opening a HTML form in Acrobat retains the form fields. Just a thought if the WORD save does not work.
    In terms of flexibility, it is a simple matter to create the form (without fields) in WORD (the master document), make changes, and create a new PDF. Then the modified pages can simply be used to replace those in the old form (don't forget to work on a copy). I guess that is the second idea that is probably the route you were planning to take. Again, bood luck with the boss and with WORD. Bill

  • Converting Word Form & Textfields

    Hi,
    I am using Acorbat Pro 9 and try to convert an existing Microsoft Word form to pdf. The word file contains text, checkboxes and text input fields.
    The checkboxes are converted correctly and the plain text, too.
    But the text input boxes are missing after conversion?
    Is there an option to include them? The word file is perfectly designed and adding all the fields again is rather much work.
    What I do not understand is, that check boxes are converted correctly but text fields are not?
    Thanks for your help,
    Christian

    It's separate program which bundles with Acrobat Pro and above.
    Be aware that
    - For Designer import to work correctly, the fields in word document should be real fields and not underlines/underscores.
    - Designer created different kind of forms from what Acrobat does. Both generate forms but with different technologies. So depending on what you do next with the form, you might have to do more work.

  • Layer got merged after using convert to profile form RGB to CMYK

    Hi all,
    I am converting a print design in photoshop cs5 from RGB to CMYK. My Layer got merged after using convert to profile form RGB to CMYK.
    after this i have save file and close it and i didn't have backup of this file.
    Now Please suggest How do i recover my all layers
    i need only my layers back.....  Please help me

    Sorry bud...but if you converted to CMYK and did NOT hceck Preserve Layers and then saved over your original layered RGB file, your layered RGB image is toast–as in gone, as in you are screwed...sorry, but Convert to Profile can flatten all the layers (depending on the options) and once flattened and saved, you have no option to recover the layered RGB file (unless you have is saved somewhere).

  • Convert to word not working - answers to form questions missing

    Hi there
    I have a form that was filled by a client that is now in pdf format. I am trying to convert it into a word file.
    All of the questions and the blank boxes for the answers are coming across, but the answers to the questions within the boxes are missing.
    Help would be appreciated please.
    Rebecca

    Well, they are right pretty much. PDF forms are not for conversion into Word. The export tools are about getting the data out NOT the look of the form.
    Generally, converting forms of any kind (filled or not) from PDF to Word is a non-starter. The layout will change too  much OR it will be utterly uneditable in Word, rendering all practical reasons for converting to Word useless.
    Conversion to Word from PDF is a way to get back the text and hint of the layout ready for re-creation.

  • Why cant i convert a pdf form to word that has xfa

    trying to convert a pdf document to Word but no matter which format I try to export to I get the message that PDF files containing XFA forms cannot be saved to th3e specific format.  I need to fill out this form and I do not need to save it.

    Hi sallyandbobh,
    XFA form can't be converted to word document that has xfa structure which is different that a normal PDF document.
    You may try to print the same document using the PDF printer if you have Acrobat installed.
    Then you can convert that document to word reason being that will get flattened.

  • I used Adobe Export PDF to convert an online form to word. I only got the form,not the fill-ins. ???

    Form document will automatically be saved after closing the file. As far as cloud message is concerned, it seems your Mobile link setting has been turned on. When you pressed device back button after filling the form, it was saved to your Acrobat.com account. You can access this document by going to Acrobat.com tab present in left pane. Its a cloud storage area where you can upload/save any document.
