Exporting/Converting PDFs to XLSX

Right side column says :Export PDF" "Convert to" - I picked XLSX.
I was requested to pay $23.88
I paid this money by credit card.
After paying, I am told that EXPORTPDF will only convert to WORD.
This is FALSE ADVERTISING.
HOW do I get MY MONEY BACK??
Please help.

Thanks for the response. Yeah, I'm a total digital packrat, so I make a point of not throwing stuff away if I have the chance.
If you got a few minutes to spare, can you check out one of the print ads I was talking about? http://goo.gl/FBPsN (5.5MB PDF). I used the Preflight fix, "Convert to PDF/X-1a (SWOP)" under PDF/X compliance and even though I just upgraded to CS5.5, it still shifts two characters over.
I'm wondering if it's the settings that I used (just used the defaults), but it definitely tells me that I have to watch this stuff like a hawk and that PDF/X-1a conversion is not a digital prepress panacea. Have you ever experienced images taking a hit in quality (ie: introducing JPG image compression)?

Unable to convert pdf into xlsx file. Can you help?

I'm trying to convert my pdf file into an xlsx file. I have the Adobe Export Subscription, yet Adobe Reader hasn't been able to convert it, although it will convert the file into an rtf file. Any suggestions on how to make the conversion?

Hey meech39265918,
Can you just elaborate what problem did you face exactly with Adobe Reader. What error u got from Adobe Acrobat. I use it all the time and it works just fine. Is something wrong with the subscription. Anyways if you want to get an alternate u can try Universal Document Converter for converting PDF to Excel - http://www.print-driver.com .

Unexpected Error Converting .pdf to .xlsx on 24Mb File

I am trying to convert a 24Mb .pdf file to .xlsx and getting Unexpected Error. It was not a scanned copy.

Tried several different computers, with several different setups, and they all gave the same error message. Tried some more troubleshooting, but really, nothing was working out. Cancled my subscription and instead used: https://www.pdftoword.com/ I really only needed 3 pdfs turned into docs, so this worked fine.

Pdf to xlsx

Converted PDF to xlsx and text and numbers are garbled and worthless, have also tried with text recognition disabled and get the same results. Outcome is useless and provides no benefit what so ever.

I just signed up month to month because I need to convert pdf to excel. Having the same problem as the output is garbled and useless. Will watch for solution but if not found by end of month, will cancel adobe.

Convert pdf to word doc-but don't have the export option.

I want to convert a pdf (that I got from an email) into a Word doc so I can edit it the way I want to. However, for some reason now I don't have the 'Export' option in my File drop down list.
Funny thing is, I've converted the document once already and have entirely forgotten how I did it obviously!
I've made so many changes in my first conversion I want to start over.
why don't I have the 'Export' option? Or ... when I do a 'save as' and chose 'word doc' it only does a copy - paste type save - where I can't make any changes. It's like it puts it into a text box or something.
I have MSWord 2010.

Hi Kelly,

When I do the steps below, the Word doc that is saved is like a photo. I am unable to work with the document. Why does it do that? I have converted pdf’s before without that happening but I think I did it on a free 30-day trial of X Pro.
This usually happens when you're dealing with a very poor quality scanned document that doesn't have enough data for the Acrobat OCR engine to actually process.
As for Acrobat 6.0 Pro, I don't believe the Save as Word function was introduced until version 8.0, but it's been a few years and the memory of Acrobat 6 has faded a bit.

Printing error and Export to PDF error after a Quark Express convert

I are working on a catalogue that was previously made with Quark Express. I used q2id to convert over to InDesign CS3. I had some minor issues setting up the new fonts, but that was no big deal. Now that the catalogue is close to finished, I want to do some test print, however, on several of the files it start processing the printing, finish the processing of all the pages, then kills the print job and comes with the following error:
Print Error: The Adobe Print Engine has failed to output your data due to an unknown problem.
Similar error happens when I try to export to PDF, this error only says:
Failed to Export PFD file
Anyone had a similar problem?? I've done a preflight but ID does not indicate any problems with the file nor its content. Is there another tool to scan the file with to find errors?? Possible fix it?? Is there a log file I could check??
In advance, thanks guys.
Working on:
InDesign CS3
Windows XP Pro, SP02
2 GB RAM

Thanks Ken,
Not sure how to check if we do have OPI comments on some of the images, but looks like I have found a solution to the printing problem at least.
Thanks to a respons by Peter Spier to another topic with similar problems:
Peter Spier - 4:00am Mar 11, 08 PST (#5 of 6)
The symptoms could describe document corruption rather than network issues which might fall into the category of things that can be cleared up through export to .inx.
Try exporting one or two of the problem files to interchange format, open those and save as new .indd and make a new book file. See if that behaves differently across the network.
I also found another article about INX files, that confirms this technique:
http://avondale.typepad.com/indesignupdate/2005/08/what_the_heck_i.html
"...INX can also help “clean up” problem files in InDesign CS2—if you’re running into problems, especially with files that started their lives as QuarkXPress or PageMaker files, try exporting the document as INX and then opening that file."
So, I
1. exported all files, one by one to INX or InDesign InterChanged
2. Then reopened those files, saved back as regular .indd files
3. Reopend the new file (hoping for a refreshed file and test to see if it would open without problems.)
4. Then packed the files indevidually and reopend the new packed files when done.
Alle the files now print without any problems but export to PDF still fails with the same error message.
Would the OPI comment be a problem here maybe?
Thanks!

Convert pdf files into wiki pages, and export wiki pages as word and pdf files

I am working on an enterprise wiki site collection inside my SharePoint server 2013. And there was a requirement to automatically generate wiki pages from word documents. As I read that the built-in service within SharePoint does not support importing the
pictures within the word documents. So I looked into 3rd party tools and I settle on the “Kaboodle Word to Wiki” link
which will manage to convert word docs into wiki pages, with only minor layout problems.
But I want to know if there are additional tools which support the following:-
Converting pdf files to SharePoint wiki pages.
Exporting SharePoint wiki pages into pdf and word documents?

I haven't seen any third party tool converting pdf files to SharePoint wiki pages and and exporting SharePoint wiki pages into pdf and word files.
You need to write custom feature where you can use iTextSharp pdf for pdf conversion. you can also check below blog which shows the export of SharePoint Wiki to Word/PDF without 3rd party tools:

Export a PDF and convert the vector-graphics to pixel-graphics

Hey,
i want to export a PDF out of indesign CS3 and convert all vector-graphics to pixel-graphics.
Is there any solution, maybe a plugin, to do this?
Thanks!!!!

You could apply a transparency effect to your vector objects that doesn't effect their appearance and make a flattener preset which forces everything to rasters—then export a flattened PDF using that preset. Why do need rasters?

I've just subscribed to Acrobat PDF Export in order to convert pdf files back to Word. Where is the icon for my desktop. I don't seem to have the program to do so?

Where on my PC do I access the PDF Export to convert pdf to Word?

A very good morning John,
As far as I have understood, there is no problem with ExportPDF. You might need to check whether the fonts in your PDF are embedded or not.
For this, open the PDF in Reader/Acrobat and go into File>Properties and click on Fonts tab to check for the same.
If the fonts used in the PDF are not present in the system, then MS Word may not be able to retain the layout of the file.
Please check.
Regards,
Anubha

Images downsized and converted when exporting to PDF

I have Pagemaker 7.0.1 installed on Virtual XP so that I can help out a family member.
Pagemaker's embedded Acrobat 4 was not working properly so I installed my Acrobat 9.0 on Virtual XP. This unfortunately has not solved the problem, which is:
My images are greyscale and 300 ppi when imported into Pagemaker. When exported to PDF using Acrobat 9.0, the images are being converted to CMYK and exported at about 50% of the actual size. Interestingly, those images that are only at 200 ppi are converted but not downsampled.
This is happening no matter how I fiddle with the settings. Happens to both jpegs and tiffs.
I found an old thread on another forum where this problem occurred but a solution was not found or posted.
Any ideas?
Michelle

This reply is a series of comments and suggestions rather than a definitive answer.
1. Your set up is less than perfect, if not unstable, and will be prone to all sorts of bizarre behaviours.
2. Never copy/paste a graphic or table into PageMaker. Always use the Place command. The only "exception" would be that you can copy and paste a properly Placed graphic from within your PageMaker document.
When placing images in a PageMaker file, the following message appears: “The graphic in the linked file would occupy xxxxxxx bytes in the publication. Include the complete copy in the publication anyway?” The correct answer to this question is always "NO".
(You can permanently avoid this popup in future docs by unchecking "store copy in publication" under Element -> Link Options with no publication open. You can do the same to avoid further prompts in pre-existing documents.)
3. Try updating PM to Ver 7.0.1a which had a better Export… AdobePDF…macro. http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=34&platform=Windows
4. In PageMaker’s Print dialogue, click on the Options button, and check "Write PostScript to File." Select the "Normal" radio button. Set both Type 1 and TrueType fonts to download. As always, set the Send TIF/Images option to Normal and NOT Optimized. Make other settings elsewhere in the print dialog as desired, such as "paper" size, crop marks, separations, etc.
5. With your non-standard setup, try the two stage print then distill process. Create a PS file using a postscript printer file, then load Distiller and convert the PS file to PDF. Note: if you have hyperlinks in your PMD file, they will not appear in your PDF and need to be re-created using Acrobat.
6. It's time to leave PM and move on to InDesign - see it as PM Ver 13.
7. Aternatively, use PM7 on a contemporary Win2K PC. http://bigjohnd.org.uk/PageMakerExportPDF/index.htm

How do I stop FH Mx from converting spot colors to cmyk on export to pdf

I have Freehand Mxa on my PC. I created a couple of rectangles and filled with two Pantone colors from my swatch pallet.
I exported to pdf and the spot colors converted to cymk. Shucks! How do I stop that?
(When I print directly to my Adobe Distiller print driver the spot colors are retained as they should in my pdf.)
In the Freehand export function there is a setup dialog box just below the "cancel" button. When that opens there is only a drop down button allowing conversion to cmyk and cmyk/rgb. So, I am guessing that is not where I can tell Freehand to leave my spots alone.
What am I doing wrong?
I was going to attach the small test file but the system did allow. Hope my description is enough to render a solution.
-Steve

The only thing you're doing wrong is using FH's PDF export. It creates PDF files that are adequate for viewing online or printing to composite inkjet printers, but it doesn't support spot colors.
There are many more reasons why you shouldn't use FH's PDF export for print work. See this technote for limitations of PDF export.

When you need to retain spot colors, print to a Postscript file and Distill.

Cannot Convert PDF to Excel Format (.xlsx)...

For over a week, I've been unable to convert a PDF to .xlsx Excel format; after considerable wheel spinning, I get "An error occurred while signing in." Working with support, I uninstalled/reinstalled Adobe Reader; the support tech reset all the preferences, all to no avail. I'm on a Mac under OS 10.9.5.
My case number with them is 186473209; it's been advanced to a higher support level.
Today, I had a friend attempt the conversion on his Mac, which is running Yosemite. He logged on with my info and was able to effect the conversion.
Could that be the solution, or might there be something else going on with my Mac that's causing the problem?

Thanks, Sara. I have attempted to effect conversion using other browsers,
including with Firefox, clearing all caches etc. The reason I tested with
Maxthon is that I didn't mind clearing it as well. Here's what I just sent
to Rahul:
I thought I told you that I have attempted the conversion using four different
browsers, all with the same failed result. These were Chrome, my default
browser, Firefox, Safari, and Maxthon. Per an Adobe techie's recommendation, I
cleared ALL cache and history as a test in both Firefox and Maxthon.
As I also told you, although I eventually get logged in, it takes inordinately
long to do so. When I select to begin the converting process, I get stuck at
this window with the "Continue" button grayed out; can only "Cancel."
Maybe I neglected to tell you that my friend is running Yosemite while I'm
still on Mavericks. A technician at Adobe told me that they think that may be
the issue.
