Different output when saving and converting Word documents

Hi,
I have some issues with images when converting some Word documents to PDF and I hope someone can enlighten me :-). If I convert the Word document by simply right clicking on it and selecting the option to Convert To Adobe PDF, it will create a file that is mostly fine, with the exception of some of the images which are being split into segments, making the image text unreadable.
However, if I save the file as PDF in Microsoft Word (both 2010 or 2013), then I have no such an issue, since the image is not being split into segments and the text is perfectly readable. I have also attached some examples, see below. Ideally I would like to be able to convert several Word documents at once, and saving each documents in Microsoft Word would be too time consuming. Any help on this, will be really appreciated.
1) Converting to PDF, the image is split into segments and the text is unreadable
2) Saving as PDF in Word, does not split the image and it retains the original quality and readable text

Hi  Linuxxo,
If the issue is not fixed with the option suggested by Rave.
We would need the files for investigation. Request you to share your email id for correspondence.
In addition please share which version of Acrobat are you using?

    Do it in two stages
    1. Download the coverted file in the usual way.
    2. Drag it to the memory stick in the usual way (Windows Explorer or Finder).

    When I download Microsoft word documents (if have word 2007), I have somehow changed the settings and it downloads them in wordpad, and the format is very bad and I can't read a lot of the document. How do I change the default setting back to using Microsoft Word 2007 to open these documents?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == about a few weeks ago - I had tried to open some docuuments saved on a mac, my PC (which runs Windows 7), used word pad to open these, and this seems to have changed the default settings somehow.

    Hi Gary Jiang,
    Thanks for posting in MSDN forum.
    This forum is for developers discussing issues about
    apps for Office.
    Based on the description, it seems that you got an issue when you deploy the code sample. If I understood clearly, I suggest that you contact the author of the code sample from the "Q and A" tab.
    Also if you have the question about WOPI, I suggest that you get more effective response from
    Office

    What's happening when you try to edit the file? Have you tried triple-clicking in the text block that you want to edit?
    Please let us know what sort of trouble you're running into. It would also be helpful to know how the PDF file was created, and what version of Word you're using.

  • Acrobat 11 Standard Office 2010 Pro Convert Word documents to PDF not working

    Adobe community,
    I can create PDF's inside Word 2010 using the Acrobat Add-in but right clicking a Word document or dragging a Word document into Adobe Acrobat 11 Standard does not work. I have updated both Acrobat 11 and Office 2010 with the latest updates available. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi markl16215442,
    In order to convert word document to PDF by right-clicking or dragging the file, you must have Adobe PDF printer installed.
    For Windows, please check that Adobe PDF is set as default printer under "Start > Devices and Printers"
    While for MAC, Adobe PDF printer option is no more available and as it was removed with some changes in Apple's policy regarding virtual printers.
    So, check with your OS and then let me know.

    Does the mail app display whatever is in the document without the ability to differentiate between hidden or non hidden images?
    The mail app will not display fillable form fields in PDF files that can be seen in real PDF apps. I say real PDF apps because the form fields in PDF apps will not appear in the iBooks app either. IMO, iBooks is not a real PDF app.
    So, I would say that the mail app cannot differentiate between hidden and non hidden items

  • How to convert word documents to html page in sharepoint online 2013

    Hi,
    I am new SharePoint and still learning it.
    I have been tasked to do the following on office 365 E3 SharePoint 2013 Online edition.
    1) I have to create a Web page in asp.net
    2) This page needs to show document from a given SharePoint folder and bind them in a grid or dropdown on the asp .net web page
    3) On selecting the document from the drop down or gird (on asp .net webpage), I need to show the SharePoint word document as HTML on the webpage (something like word to html) Note: These SharePoint word document may contain Images, bullets, tables etc. 
    What I have been able to do till now
    1) I have been able to connect to SharePoint from ASP .net application.
    2) I have been able to retrieve document from a specific SharePoint folder.
    3) Read the document from SharePoint folder and bind them to a drop down on the asp .net page.
    What is missing?
    I am not aware about any API that SharePoint Online provides to convert Word document to HTML. Any code sample or reference on how to will be much appreciated. 
    I am not also not sure what is the best way of achieving the functionality this?
    Thanks 
    Krishna

    If this was SharePoint server then it would be easy however in O365 You need to create a app which will use the word automation service and below is  powershell which you can use for the conversion:-
    # This script will convert Docx to PDF using word automation and similarly it can be used to convert to HTML
    $wordFile="http://contoso/kick.docx"
    $pdfFile="http://contoso/kick.pdf"
    $wasp = Get-SPServiceApplicationProxy | where { $_.TypeName -eq "Word Automation Services Proxy" }
    $site = Get-SPSite "http://contoso"
    $ConvertJob = New-Object Microsoft.Office.Word.Server.Conversions.SyncConverter($wasp)
    $ConvertJob.UserToken = $site.UserToken
    $ConvertJob.Settings.UpdateFields = $false
    $ConvertJob.Settings.OutputFormat = "PDF"
    $ConvertJob.Convert($wordFile, $pdfFile)

    Yes, you can using Office Open XML. I found it to be a lot more cumbersome and in the end not a money saving approach:

  • When importing from a Word document placing the text in InDesign

    When importing from a Word document placing the text in InDesign I can only see the text from the first page of the Word document. I have increased the number of pages in the Indesign document to more than what is in the Word document, still only text from the first page is shown. What am I doing wrong or did I not set a setting correctly?

    When you want to auto flow text while placing, hold down the Shift key when clicking with the Place cursor on the first page. New pages will be generated and text will be auto flowed using the margins set up on the master page.

  • The converted word document is not easily edited without having to correct the scewing, etc.

    the converted word document is not easily edited without having to correct the scewing, etc. The final edited document is not suitable.

    > I was able to get the first column resized and can

    > automatically,
    This sounds more like Word than Indesign. I've never been able to resize
    a column in Word without messing up the column next to it. There's
    probably a way to make Word columns behave properly; I just don't know
    Word that well.
    In Indesign, to make table columns act the way you're describing, you
    must be either dragging the column wider from the left side; or (2)
    holding down the shift key while you drag. Otherwise, making a column
    wider just makes the table wider.
    Try dragging from the right side without the shift key. You can also
    select part or all of the column, go into the Table palette, and set the
    column width exactly, by numbers (which is what I usually do, because I
    like to make sure that my table adds up to exactly or less than the
    width of the text column).
    Sometimes I need to make my tables wider than the page, temporarily,
    just so I can see everything in them and decide where I can lose enough
    space to fit the whole thing on the page. Remember that you can reduce
    cell insets, as well.

  • When i copy a word document into the body of an email, it arrives in a distorted format.  what can i do to insure it will arrive in the body of the email as it appears in my word document?

    how can i ensure that when i copy a word document into the body of an email, it will arrive in the same format as it appears in the word document.  mine arrive with distorted spacing.  thank you!!

    Sounds like the Word file may have right justification. You can turn that off within Word.
    You can also save the file as a pdf using these instructions:
