Exporting PDF to Word

I have created a table in InDesign and saved it as a PDf document. Now the client wants to be able to open it in Word. Can a PDF document be exported to a Word format?

Hi p_lue,
With Adobe Acrobat (Standard or Professional) you can choose File > Save As > Microsoft Word > Word Document to save your PDF file as a .docx.
If you don't have Acrobat installed, we offer a service, ExportPDF, for this function. You can learn more here: http://exportpdf.acrobat.com

Need help. Exporting pdf to Word or cretaing live fields in doc

I need to take a 180pg doc and save it as a word doc or manage to turn all the necessary areas into live fields. I've tried going to export > word document or File > export to anything really and I keep getting this error message
Adobe was unabl;e to make this document accessible becuase of the following error:
Bad PDF; could not read page structure. Bad PDF; error in processing fonts cannot find CMap resource file> [3]
I received this document form a client overseas. I can't get them to resend another copy.
Anyway's I can get around this error? I'm desperate I have 9 other docs with the same amount of page to make live

Sounds that you want to make the PDF files live and then edit them in Word? Why not directly edit them in Adobe Acrobat? It can help directly edit PDF, the conversion is unnecessary. And if you really want to export PDF to Word but the acrobat can help you little, you would try free PDF to Word Converter, which may help you for the conversion. However, I am not sure you would do that work well. Because I am a little confused about the problem you described. Just have a try and it may helps.

Is there a size limit to exporting PDF to Word?

Is there a size limit when exporting PDF to Word format? I keep getting time out errors for files exceeding 100 MB

Hi riversideredhead63,
100 MB is indeed the file size limit for uploading files to cloud.acrobat.com. Have you tried optimizing the PDF files in Acrobat to reduce their file size?
Best,

Problems to export pdf to word document

That I can do about it
Thank you.

Olá bahl2
Pode, por favor explicar sua dúvida em português mesmo? Porque, em inglês, está difícil entender o que você precisa :/.
Você publicou sua pergunta no fórum de scripts de Adobe Illustrator, ao invés do fórum geral. Você está exportando o documento por meio de um script, é isso?
Quando você se refere a "cortinhos", você se refere a aquelas finas divisões em seu plano de fundo vermelho?
Um abraço
Gustavo.

Exporting PDF to Word with Acrobat 8 - Does this work?

Has anyone had any success with a decent export-to-Word using Acrobat 8 (from CS3)?
Acrobat 7 is worthless for this. I suspect the woeful results have much to do with how the PDF was made. If it came from InDesign or Illustrator, and has layers, that will no doubt flummox wonky old Word.
Or, is it the wonky "export to Word" function that's wonky? I see there is also "Export to RTF" which is much the same file format as .doc. You get exactly the same crazy results.
Here at my job, they have determined the best way to get a decent Word doc out of what we're publishing is to export each individual text box from InDesign as "RTF". Then open word and wrangle all the bits.
This is time consuming and senseless - certainly the technology exists to convert PDFs to Word cleanly and perfectly.
Or ... is Adobe just telling us, by quietly setting us up to fail, that we shouldn't be using Word at all? So they're not going to bother to make this work?
Sadly, at my gig, we need to do this. Our clients are dinosaurs, and the average T-Rex is deathly afraid of Acrobat Reader and PDFs.

< Frankly, I don't really give a lot of thought to employers who refuse PDFs for graphic design positions. It's like asking me to retouch a photo using MacPaint.>
A resume is a document, not a design sample. A lot of employers do not want "designed" resumes at all. They want simple searchable text resumes. Even using special formatting features in Word can mess up their processes. HR departments could care less how pretty it is, all they want is data. You'll need to impress the design manager at the interview, after HR has passed it on. Even the hiring manager may find a highly designed resume to be annoying and difficult to read.
Of course if that's not where you want to work, that's up to you, but you might be turning down excellent design positions by insisting they accept things your way instead of doing things their way! ;-)

Exporting pdfs to word and excel file formats and translating

Hello, I am new to this forum and came here because I am a professional translator. Although we should be given documents in their original file format, in the real world translators have to convert pdfs such as manuals or annual reports into word or excel files. Given the fact we often work for agencies, and/or do not work directly with the people who created the original files inthe first place, with the best will in the world we normally have to make do with converting the pdf file, or lose the job.
I would like advice on the best way to learn more about pdf to word and excel conversion and ways of keeping formatting when it is helpful and removing what is not.
The general problem is (well the problem is really ignorance on my part!) of course getting the "look and feel" similar in the converted document and knowing more about manipulating the formating and elements which get converted.
Any help or pointers to online tutorials whether multimedia or text much appreciated.
David Hardisty (david1610)

Thank you Lori, this is so clear! I am a teacher as well and there are clear presentations and wonderfully clear presentations and this is in the latter category.
A tiny suggestion. You would not believe how many pdf files exported to word I have received that are Portuguese content and the sender has not set the language to Portuguese! So in your text entry you might want to mention the language setting. I know it is obvious, but as we know sometimes we cannot see the obvious!
I will need to look far more carefully at the final things in your video.
Are there any special considerations for exporting pdf files as Excel? My original doubt was I had to translate some accounting documents. 95% of the document was numbers which did not changing (except for commas to periods and vice versa due to different separator conventions). I did not now how to just select e.g. the vertical column with text. I will go back and try with this suggestion because in this case the look and feel of the numbers was important and the precise fonts etc. seemed to cause problems. But now I am getting out of my depth!
Thank you again!

Help with Export PDF to Word doc

I subscribed to export PDF. I am signed in. I click on convert to Word doc and it looks like Adobe is doing something. Then I click on view converted files and it keeps taking me to the subscribe page!! I feel like Adobe has just stolen $23 from me!!!!!!

Hi dou,
I just checked your account, and it looks like you should be good-to-go. If you're still receiving a message about subscribing, it's likely that you just need to sign in to the service. From the ExportPDF website, click Sign in at the upper-right corner, and log in to the service with your Adobe ID credentials. Now, when you click ExportPDF, you'll be prompted to select PDF files to export, instead of being asked to subscribe.
Best,
Sara

Why after exporting PDF to Word some characters are not displaying accurately.

I exported a PDF to Word and it changed the case of some of the characters from upper case to lower case and even changed the font. In some areas the kerning is wonky too. What do I need to do differently?

Very likely you are not needing to change anything. Some variation in output can be found depending on the data structure of the file involved.
Will Adobe ExportPDF convert both text and formatting information?Adobe ExportPDF is capable of exporting high quality information, but the quality of your Word document depends on the quality of the PDF file you start with. For instance, if your PDF file was originally authored in Microsoft Word and converted to PDF using the PDF Maker functionality in Adobe Acrobat® software, your PDF file contains a rich set of information that can be captured by Adobe ExportPDF. This includes relative positioning of tables, images, and even multicolumn text, as well as page, paragraph, and font attributes. If your PDF file was originally authored using simpler PDF generation methods, such as “print to PDF” or “scan to PDF” options, Adobe ExportPDF will convert any recognizable text and then use sophisticated conversion intelligence to preserve as much of the page layout as possible.
