Edit documents .pdf to word

Hello I have adobe acrobat professional. I need to edit some
text in some pdfs. When I try to convert the pdf to word, the
pages are jpeg instead of text. How do I edit the text?

You can directly edit PDF files in PDF format, it may be unnecessary for you save PDF as word. Anyway, if you want to save pdf as word and found that the text are images, you need to make use the original page is a image, not editable text. Have you checked that in your Acrobat Pro? You can also use PDF OCR to resolve the problem--tranfer images to editable text. Google is good buddy to help you find some free applications. Be well.

edit a pdf to word for altering as i have now updated to pro for my mac

Hi how do I remove...
I'm sorry, but I don't understand what your question is. It sounds as though you've purchased an Acrobat Pro subscription. If you have Acrobat Pro, you can convert a PDF to Word by choosing File > Save as Other > Microsoft Word > Word Document.
Please let us know how it goes.

Je veux convertir un document pdf en word, texte en anglais. Texte illisible. Comment faire ?

je veux convertir un document pdf en word, texte en anglais. Le texte est illisible. Il reprend quelques passages en anglais et le reste est fait de signes très bizarres.
Comment arriver à un résultat correct ?
merci d'avance pour votre aide.
Cordialement.

Si el texto del PDF no se puede leer, probablemente está escrito en una fuente que no está en tu sistema. Si es así, no se me ocurre qué puedas hacer, excepto instalar la(s) fu7entes faltantes, o pedir al autor del PDF una nueva copia con las fuentes debidamente incrustadas.

Using Pages to edit document created in Word...Help!

Hi! I'm fairly new to Mac and am experiencing much frustration while trying to edit a Word-created document in Pages. This document contained page numbers in the footer that I need to edit. Unfortunately, I am unable to change the page numbers in Pages. I try to click on the numbers and it doesn't do a thing. When I bring up the footer section in Pages, the text box falls just to the left of the page number.
Any input would be appreciated SO much! I'm getting tired of borrowing a friend's computer to do work that I'm pretty sure I can do on my Mac.

j,
Welcome to Apple discussions.
This issue comes up rarely, but it is a known problem. There's something odd about how some Word files get translated into Pages format -- the page numbers get a little screwy. There are two things I can think of to try: 1) Click on Format > Advanced > Make Master Objects Selectable. If this works, you should now be able to select the page number ... or 2) Insert a small rectangle, wrap off, colored white, over the page number, then put a proper page number in either the header or the footer.
Just so you know, I receive Word docs all the time with page numbers in them, and they translate fine. But every now and then I hear tales of the same problem you're having.

Unable to edit documents after AVG installation

I have a dual drive Toshiba laptop, which has been recntly updated from Vista to Windows 7. Windows 7 has taken up most of my C drive, so I have had to put programs onto the other data E drive. The other day I bought AVG ant-virus 2011 and put it onto my computer (data e drive). Since then, even after taking avg off, I am unable to edit documents on office Word or OpenOffice. it seems to be doing it to my external drive (that I have added) as well as now. Its strange since this only started as soon as i used AVG. Any suggestions what the problem could be? How it can be resolved.
I really need some help, as my computer seems to be slowly dying! Tried to get in contact with AVG but they seem just to be ignoring the problem at the moment.
Thanks for any help,

Hi buddy,
> Its strange since this only started as soon as i used AVG.
In this case I would contact AVG directly if they can say something about this or if its a known issue. I never heard about this but AVG should know what to do now.
I dont know what notebook you have but Im pretty sure its a software issue and it seems to be related to AVG

Word processor like "editing" is not tolerated by PDF (the file format/technology discussed and described by the ISO Standard for PDF, ISO 32000-1). Minor touchups are tolerated. The textual characters have to be renderable text (a scanner's output image of text is a picture of text not "real" text).
Open the PDF with Acrobat XI.
Click-path:
Tools - Content Editing - Edit Text & Images

Edit document that was converted from PDF to Word Doc.

How do I edit a document that I converted from a PDF to a word document????? When I open my now "Word Document" it does not allow me to edit the text.

Bill, The PDF came from a scanning of a Word document, but my office did not produce the PDF and I don't know exactly how the original Word document was scanned, whether OCR was engaged at that stage, etc., but the select tool in Adobe Reader leads to the cross-hairs on the PDF. We are working without AA, and I was trying to convert the PDF back to an editable Word document through ExportPDF, with which I thought I had had some success in the past in similar circumstances (converting an image PDF back to an editable Word document). With this document, the conversion back to Word through ExportPDF has led to an uneditable Word document with text in image frames whether OCR is on or off in the PDF to Word conversion effort... and if there is a way to remove the frames in Word, but keep the text, I haven't "re"figured it out yet. For instance, triple clicking doesn't seem to do anything.
On this particular document, we've gone back to the old fashioned way of retyping the page that has the error in it ... and sticking it back in the document. (It also would have been smarter timewise for me in this case to have spent more time on tracking down the preceding Word document.)
Was I missing something in the conversion process from scanned image PDF to Word document with edit capabilities? Thanks!
Dave

Can you edit a pdf document without exporting it into a word document?

Can you edit a pdf document without exporting it into a word document?

Hi sylvias99766822,
You can if you have Acrobat. If you don't, feel free to give it a try. You can download a 30-day trial from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.
Keep in mind, though, that Acrobat isn't intended to be a word processor. So, while you can make adjustments to text and graphics, if you need to do a major overhaul of the text in the document, it's best to go back to the source document and edit the content there.
Best,
Sara

Is there a way to edit a PDF file without converting it into a word document?

Then you posted in the wrong forum...
At any rate, you can use the Edit Text & Images tool (under Tools - Content Editing) to make changes to the file. You'll need to be a bit more specific about what you want to change if you want more detailed instructions.
