Converting PDF document to Word

Why I can't converd a PDF document to Word?

Good day Scott,
I received your document via our File Conversion Issue form. The root of the problem you're facing is the quality of the scan. I'm not sure if you were starting with a poor quality hard-copy or simply low DPI settings on your scanner, but the reason the results you received were so different than the PDF was the quality of the input.
If you're hard copy looks clearer than the PDF file you created, I would suggest increasing the resolution settings on your scanner.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Kind regards,
David

When converting a PDF document to word, the word count feature is not giving me the number of words

I have been using Acrobat for converting PDF documents to Word. It had been working just fine, but lately, when I convert a PDF document to Word, it is not giving me the word count, which is why I subscribed in the first place. Someone has any idea of why?

Hi Robin,
I would recommend you to use Acrobat software to convert this pdf file, Acrobat software enable you to customize the conversion settings.
You can download a free 30-day trial from this Link : https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-downloads.html
After downloading and installing acrobat, Open pdf file in Acrobat, go to File menu -> Click 'save as other' -> Microsoft Word -> Word Document.
A pop-up window will appear that would prompt you to choose the file to be converted, after you select the file, click on the settings button on the bottom left of the pop-up window and choose 'Retain Page layout' under layout settings, click ok and then save.
Hope that helps with your query.

Rahul

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...

Just converted a PDF document to Word, none of the graphics from the PDF file show up in the Word document?
What do I need to do to bring the graphics and exhibits from the PDF file to the Word file?

Hi jackp52432917,
How was that PDF file created? Please see Will Adobe ExportPDF convert both text and form... | Adobe Community
It could be that the PDF file you're converting was created using a third-party application, and it doesn't contain all the information necessary to ensure a clean conversion. Have you had similar troubles converting other PDF files?

How do I convert a Word hyperlink path to point to a converted PDF document?

I have a folder with Word documents that I want to convert to PDF. Many of the Word documents have hyperlinks to bookmarks in other Word documents in the same folder. (I'm trying to convert all the Word documents in the folder to PDF.) After I convert all the folder documents to PDF and click on the hyperlinks, they take me to the old Word documents. Is there a way to convert the hyperlink paths to instead take me to the converted PDF document?

The original Hyperlink path, established in the MS Word files has as the target file some *.doc file.
Edit Hyperlinks, in MS Word, to change the target file(s) to the appropriate *.pdf file.
As a guess, I'd say someone familiar with MS VB might be able to come of with something to do the change programmatically.
An alternative could be a web search for a possible Acrobat JavaScript that might do the job to the PDF files.
Failing that the job would be done manually to each Hyperlink in each MS Word file.
As to MS Hyperlinks to MS "Bookmarks" in other files.
The [ # ] character used as a parameter is not interpreted by Adobe Reader / Acrobat in the same manner as MS Office products.
Consequently, in an output PDF, the link will only open the target file. Note that MS Bookmarks within a DOC file will function in the output PDF.
For PDF Open Parameters see:

How do I convert a Dutch pdf document to Word ?

How do I convert a Dutch pdf document to Word ?

While the ExportPDF service doesn't support Dutch at this time, it does support French, which uses a similar character set. You may want to try choosing French as the OCR language.
Let us know how it goes.

Problems converting PDF to MS Word document. I successfully converted 4 files and now subsequent files generate a "conversion failure" error when attempting to convert the file. I have a large manuscript and I separated each chapter to assist with the conversion; like I said, first 4 parts no problem, then conversion failure. I attempted to convert the entire document and same result. I specifically purchased the export to Word feature. Please assist. I initially had to export the Word Perfect document into PDF and attempting to go from PDF to MS Word.

Hi sdr2014,
I'm sorry to hear your conversion process has stalled. It sounds as though the problem isn't specific to one file, as you've been unable to convert anything since the first four chapters converted successfully.
So, let's try this:
If you're converting via the ExportPDF website, please log out, clear the browser cache, and then log back in. If you're using Reader, please choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version installed.
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara
