Converting resources from .doc to .pdf in KM
I'm trying to make a UI command that can be added to a repository's context menu that would convert a .doc file to a .pdf. I'm not sure how to go about it though.
Do I need 3rd party software or is there some functionality already available within EP?
Are there any java libraries that can handle this? I've looked at iText but I'm not sure it can do the job.
Any help or advice will be appreciated.

Hi Glen,
I'm facing with the same situation. I don't have a solution yet, but I'm looking to a special Open Office library.
Open Office is capable of exporting all kind of Microsoft Office documents in PDF formats. However, it isn't Java, and the PDF exports may not be perfect from MS Office documents. There is some level of Java integration in Open Office, but I don't know how much you can do with it.
Regards,
Luciano

Email Address Not Converting Correctly from .doc to .pdf
I'm attempting to convert a Microsoft Word document to a PDF. I have an email address in the footer of the document that reads [email protected] but when I convert it to a PDF, the hyperlink doesn't work correctly. When I click on the hyperlink in the PDF, it brings up the email address as [email protected] It completely cuts off the first name! The full email address displays correctly, but when you click on it, it cuts off the entire first name before the period.
Please help!Be sure you use PDF Maker for the conversion. If that does not help, put such addresses in quotes and see if that does the job.

I purchased the 9.99 monthly plan from iTunes to convert my resume from .doc to .pdf and it keeps telling me to purchase the upgrade I already bought. I look on my PC and it says I'm still a free customer and need to sign up annually for the pack. ********! What do I need to do
If you purchased a subscription from Apple's iTunes store, you'll need to go to them to manage it:

Unable to convert Microsoft Word doc. to PDF in Words (there is no response)
Unable to convert Microsoft Word doc to PDF in Words (Does not respond) or Create PDF from a Word doc. in Adobe Acrobat X Standard 10.1.1 with all updates installed. I receive apop-up saying "Missing PDF Maker Files: Dou you want to run the installer in Repair Mode" I have done this several times. I have un-installrd and re installed the program twice. Still does not work. I'm running Windows 7 Home version and Microsoft Office XP 2002. This is a brabd new Acrobat program right out of the box. Suggestions Please.
In WORD 2002, I believe you can only print to the Adobe PDF printer. I think that WORD 2003 is the first compatible with AA X. Check out http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333504.html.

Acrobat 5.0 How do I keep the original file name after I have converted a Word doc to PDF?
MY colleague has a certain setting in Acrobat that allows him to keep the original file name when he converts documents from Word to PDF. Every time I convert Word, Acrobat overwrites the filename and names it "untitled.pdf". I would like to retain the original name and for Acrobat to simply add the .pdf file extension to the original name. How do I do this?
I have no idea what you are doing for sure. Does your WORD document have a name. I opened a WORD document and selected the Acrobat Distiller printer for AA5, I got the file menu for selecting the name and it was automatically filled in with the DOC changed to PDF. If you are using PDF Maker, then you will need to search there - I removed PDF Maker for AA5 years ago and can't view that part. I see the same types of options in PDF Maker for AA8.1.2 as I saw in the printer for AA5 and guess it is the same. The untitled.pdf suggests that you never saved the original DOC file so it has a name.

How can I send scanned files, which are documents changed from doc to PDF, as documents that can be edited if the recipient doesn't have Adobe capabilities?
Hi flaviusjack,
If you still have the .doc files, it might be best to send those to your recipients so they can be edited. Otherwise, you can use ExportPDF to convert the PDF files back to .doc format. But, again, that step would be unnecessary if you have the .doc files.
Best,

I'm using Generate PDF Service API(Java) to convert a document(.doc) to PDF.
Can anyone please provide their inputs on the above issue. How it can be resolved?

Is there any API to convert any native file format to PDFA directly?

Michaelp70541244. I have converted a word doc. to pdf, but none of the fonts are embedded.
Anyone know the answer?
Hi michaelp70541244,
What did you use to convert the Word doc to PDF? Regardless of the method you used, however, some fonts will never be embedded, if licensing for those fonts restricts it.

Problem converting Word 2007 DOC to PDF 9
Problem converting Word 2007 DOC to PDF 9
I have a Word 2007 DOC (not docx) file with pictures and text which converted perfectly with Distiller 8. I installed CS4 Distiller 9, and now the same DOC file flows over onto several extra pages. I am using the default settings. Any idea what has changed. Thanks in advance.First, select the Adobe PDF printer in WORD. Then go through the document to check for the flow of the document. It should print the same as you see in the document after the printer has been selected.

Hyperlink cross-references not converted from doc to pdf
Hi,
We are having some problems converting word documents to pdf. This is a standard part of our day to day work, we convert docs to pdf all the time. We use acrobat 7 professional and Office Professional 2003. The symptom is that hyperlinks are not all being converted in the pdf. The TOC is fine but after that the links do not always work. Right now i have downgraded a workstation back to adobe 6 professional and i'm running a conversion on that of one of our docs that doesn't convert properly. Otherwise i have tried all the settings in the conversion settings window, i have tried saving the doc as an xml first.
So i have some docs which convert perfectly and some which convert except for dead hyperlinks. I can't see anything wrong with the hyperlinks. I've also tried different workstations, it's always the same result.
Has anyone else seen anything like this and if so can you suggest any way forward apart from recreating a million hyperlinks in the converted pdfs?
thanksFrom Word I select 'convert to Adobe PDF' from the Adobe PDF menu.
We convert word docs to pdf as part of the daily running of the business.
We always use PDFMaker and not the adobe pdf printer.
Before now hyperlinks were converting fine.
I have tried previously to update acrobat, it seems to be stuck on the 7.1.0 update.
When I search for new updates it just installs the 7.1.0 update again - i have 3 workstations like this.
They have been like this for a long time, i had in fact stopped attempting to update them - adobe has worked fine up til now and it is in daily use.
Maybe this is the root of the problem.
I will try and get one up to date on 7.1.2 and run a conversion and see what happens. -
