Covert to word doc. distorted, not good ?

Hi, when I convert a pdf to a word doc it is distorted, out of line, really bad. Also sometimes the highlight function won't work and sometimes it does??
Can't find anyway to contact Adobe either, very frustrating!
Please help??

Hi Joanne,
We regret for the inconvenience caused to you!!
Are you using Acrobat.com online service or Acrobat software for the conversion. Do you mean layout of the document is distorted when you convert it from .pdf to .doc format?
Is you highlight function working fine now? If not, what exactly happens when you click on the highlight button!!
Regards,
Rahul

Hi olivias,
It sounds like there may be some confusion on your system about what application should be associated with PDF files. You can reset filename associations by following the steps in these articles (depending on your operating system):

PDF to Word(.doc) document not convert correctly

Hi
I'm trying to convert a pdf file into a word document but i'm unable to do it. the reason is i want to fill in an income tax form which is in a pdf format and i can't add any details in the file...
How do i convert this file into a word doc file, someone can help plz,,,step by step as i'm not really an expert in this field..
Regards

If you have adobe X, simply go to "File" -> "Save-As" and Microsoft Word is an option. Also, there is a download (paid) called Able2Extract that will allow you to convert pdfs to word, excel, etc. but the formatting is often lost. If you get the premium package, you can even convert scanned documents. I've used Adobe X to do the conversion, and it retains headers, footers and all formatting.
And i personally share you with a article about how to converting PDF files to Word(.doc), you just need to follow the easy guide.
Hope it can help you a lot.

CR10 Exported MS word doc file not print out

My application (CR10, VB6, Oracle10.2) exports MS word doc file to disk, But when I try to print out, not print out at some printer and print out legal size (8.5x14) at some printer. It set up as Letter (8.5x11) I think in CR, page footer is wrong place. How I can change page footer location to move up in the report?
one more thing...
When I try to open this MS doc file, always prompt pop up and ask "You want to convert to RTF?" I don't understand.
Thank you.

Sachiko,
You might want to try exporting to MS Word from within the Crystal Reports Deisgner and see if you get the same behaviour. If it appears correctly from the Designer then it would suggest an issue with the coding in your application and the issue would be better answered in the BO SDK Application Development forums.
I think the footer is in the wrong place due to the incorrect paper size and don't believe that any formatting of the report itself will correct it.

Converting from word doc does not save pictures or links

Hi,
I have word 2000 and I can convert a text word doc into flash
paper and a pdf but when I put a picture in the word doc with a
hyperlink on the picture and convert to flash paper or a pdf it
looks like it is converting but when I open up the flash paper or
pdf file the picture with the hyperlink is never there.
What am I doing wrong or is word 2000 too old?

Hi again!
I just reinstalled word and now the picture will print to
flashpaper or a pdf but when you put the hyperlink on the picture
nothing will print so now I know it is the hyperlink that is the
problem.
Anyone know why the hyperlink makes it to not print?

My Word docs are NOT saving as PDF files.

I go to "File, Print, PDF, Save as PDF, save doc to my desktop, click Save"...it "processes" then chimes alerting me it's completed, but the PDF is NO WHERE on my desktop (or anywhere on my laptop for that matter!!)
The interesting thing about this problem ONLY happens when I CREATE that particular Word document. If someone emails me a Word doc and I download it and then open it up in Word, I am then ABLE to save it as a PDF. Soo, I tried emailing the file I created to myself...downloaded it, and tried to save as a PDF, same thing happens as before....no where to be found.
Helpppp. I am SO frustrated. THANKS

Okay - could be a bad file or a document with a goofy format, size, or table of contents snafu.
I had issues with Acrobat 9.x with Word 2010 (Windows). I stopped using Acrobat and just started doing what you're doing - saving direct from Word > PDF - and haven't had an issue since (other than bloated file sizes even saving as "minimum").
So my advice is to look at your document. It could be a TOC thing, or a large image, or something else messing up the engine.
Remember, Office 2007, 2010, and 2011 all save DOCX as XML files. So the "converter" (save-as-PDF) is rendering XML > PDF.

Pdfs and word docs started not displaying correctly in browser. How do I fix this?

Until about a week ago, when I would open a pdf or word document in Firefox, it would open in a new Window and I could view it without download. Now, when I open a pdf, it shows some lines, but no text. I can only view the document if I then download the document, which will display correctly. Today, I tried to open a Word document from Firefox. A new window opened and it told me how many pages there was, but all of the pages are blank.
Is there a way to fix this? I like not having to download the documents unless I want to save them.
I'm using Firefox 37.0.1 on a computer running Windows 7 Enterprise, Service pack 1.
Thanks,
Jessica

Ok. My computer ran updates last night and today it works. So, I'm good for now. If this happens to anyone else, I'm not sure how it was fixed besides the fact that my computer ran updates and restarted.
Thanks,
Jessica

Read contents of Word docs?

Hello all:
I have a directory of word documents that I need to loop
through and read the contents and save various parts of the textual
content into a database.
I've used cfdirectory to loop through the directory and then
cffile action="read" to read the contents of the file into a
variable. However, I have what appears to be binary information
stored before and after the text that is saved in the variable
specified in the cffile tag.
How can I get rid of this so that I'm left with just the text
contained in the Word file?
TIA
Lisa

When you read a binary file you get binary data. Word .doc
are not text
files. If you can not convert the files to txt or at least
rtf files
you will have to use the word com object to parse the file.
This is a
very problematic solution as it involves installing MS Word
on the
server. The trouble is the MS Word is not designed to run on
a server
and both Adobe nee Macromedia, and Microsoft warn against
doing so.
If you do so, have good access to the server. Because as you
program,
anytime you do something that causes MS Word to ask a
question with a
dialog box, it is going to send that to the server's screen
and lock up
and wait for somebody sitting at the server to answer the
dialog. Since
it is not a server application it doesn't understand how to
send these
to clients in any way.
No since you can read some of the text from the binary, you
may be able
to get it out with Regex or other string processing, but that
does not
sound like fun to me.

Problems importing Word Doc footnotes/endnotes into Dreamweaver CS4

I am having a problem importing a Word doc with footnotes/endnotes into Dreamweaver. When I do the import (or a copy and paste) I get the references without the actual number for the endnotes in superscript!
I currently have Dreamweaver CS4 (though have also experienced this issue with Dreamweaver 8)
I am currently using Word 2007 (but experienced this same problem with earlier versions of Word).
The document has a standard sort of endnote. In the middle of the text there is a number in superscript that refers to a note at the end. When I do an import I get the nice set of back and forth references with anchors and links but missing the number! Let me copy and paste an example:
Here is the text I have:
the largest multilateral recipient of UK aid,[i] with the UK
[i] DFID (2010) DFID in 2009-10.
Now here is the HTML I get when I import:
the largest multilateral recipient of UK aid,<a href="#_edn1" name="_ednref1" title="" id="_ednref1"> </a> with the UK
And as an endnote:
<div id="edn1">
<p><a href="#_ednref1" name="_edn1" title="" id="_edn1"> </a> DFID (2010) <em>DFID in 2009-10</em>.</p>
</div>
<div id="edn2">
What I really need is:
the largest multilateral recipient of UK aid,<a href="#_edn1" name="_ednref1" title="" id="_ednref1"><sup>1</sup></a> with the UK
And as an endnote:
<div id="edn1"><p><a href="#_ednref1" name="_edn1" title="" id="_edn1"><sup>1</sup></a> DFID (2010) <em>DFID in 2009-10</em>.</p>
</div> <div id="edn2">
Does anyone know why these superscript numbers are missing? And how I can get Dreamweaver to put them in. I have long documents with 50 or more footnotes and would hate to have to redo this by hand!

The problem is that some of the material in the endnote/footnote is explanatory in nature rather than just a reference or citation. So I need a way to include explanatory text and don't want to put multiple sentences in ( ) in the middle of the text.
I would have to say clearly someone at Adobe did think conversion of endnotes/footnotes is a worthwhile endeavour, because Dreamweaver is designed to do it! You can see clearly from the code snippet that they programmed Dreamweaver to do an import with a very nice set of back and forth anchor references. Just somehow the actual reference numbers don't show up. In fact the HTML code for this provided by Dreamweaver is very clean and nice (contradicting bemdesign's assertion that you can not turn a word doc into a good HTML doc), with the exception of the missing number references!
Is there a setting somewhere that I might need to play with to get this to work better?? Or something I need to do with the Word doc text before I do an import? Any other work around.

How to create pdf from word doc file

HI
I have a word doc file. (not docx). I have adobe 8 pro. I wrote a word script to create the file using the distiller. The fonts in the pdf file it makes look wacky. That script looks liek this:
* create archive pdf file
lfilename = "t:\cardeals\pdf\pdf_archive\" + PADL(alltrim(STR(month(date()))),2,"0") + PADL(alltrim(STR(DAY(DATE()))),2,"0") + SUBSTR(ALLTRIM(STR(YEAR(DATE()))),3,2) + "1.pdf"
oWord = createOBJECT("Word.Application")
oWord.DisplayAlerts = .f.
oWord.documents.open('t:\cardeals\cardeals.doc')
oword.ActivePrinter = "\\CSSSERVERONE\Overflow"
oword.application.printout(,,,,,,,4,,,,,,,,,,,)
oWord.PrintOut(.F.,.F.,,"c:\output.ps",,,,,,.F.)
oPDF = CREATEOBJECT ( "PDFDistiller.PDFDistiller.1" )
oPDF.FileToPDF("c:\output.ps", "&lfilename.", "High Quality" )
oWord.application.quit
release oword
I also wrote a script to attempt to print it from the Adobe printer. It seems to work, but when I go to open the created pdf file it I get the following message:
Acrobat could not open mypdf.pdf because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged.
The code was this:
Set oWordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
    Set oDocument = CreateObject("Word.Document")
    oWordApp.Visible = True
    oWordApp.Application.WindowState = wdWindowStateMinimize
    Set oDocument = oWordApp.Documents.Open("t:\cardeals\cardeals.doc")
    strOutputPDFName = "c:\mypdf.pdf"
    holdprtrdefault = oWordApp.ActivePrinter
    oWordApp.ActivePrinter = "Adobe PDF"
    oWordApp.Application.PrintOut FileName:="t:\cardeals\cardeals.doc", _
        Copies:=1, _
        Range:=wdPrintAllDocument, _
        Item:=wdPrintDocumentContent, _
        Pages:="", _
        PageType:=wdPrintAllPages, _
        Collate:=True, _
        Background:=False, _
        PrinttoFile:=False, _
        OutputFileName:=strOutputPDFName
If I clkick on the PDFMaker icon iside word, the resultant file is BEAUTIFUL. Can I automate this from within word? If not, does PDFMaker have a command line utility that I could put in a batch file?

I don't have an answer, but you might get a better response in the scripting forum.

From PDF to Word DOC

When I attempt to convert a multiple page MS Word 2003 doc (25 pgs) to PDF using Adobe Std 9, it works. When I attempt to take that same PDF and convert it back to WORD using the feature within Adobe Acrobat 9 Std FILE - EXPORT - WORD DOCUMENT, Adobe will take the 25 pages and convert it to 2 pgs. Is there a setting turned on that I'm missing?

The fact that it is a new WORD doc is not the point. It is the process you used to create the PDF. I suspect from your post that you used the print to the Adobe PDF printer option. That option includes no tags or bookmarks. The tags are needed to reverse the process, though that may still not be perfect. The 25 pp to 2 pp is a bit drastic, but without knowing the content of the WORD file and the method of creating the PDF, I am only guess at possibilities.

How can Hebrew letters in a pdf file be reproduced with Hebrew as a word doc using adobe export pdf?

I subscribe to Adobe Export PDF and it has worked well. Today I uploaded a PDF file with Hebrew letters and the downloaded Word doc did not format the Hebrew letters as Hebrew letters. Is there a way around this?

Try Goodreader in the App Store. It should do the job for you.
