How do I save highlighting in .pdf file when converting to .docx format?

When I try to convert a .pdf file to .docx format the highlighted words are not visible through the highlighted area.  Just blocks of color with no words showing through apear in the converted file:
After Conversion to .docx
I created the .pdf file on an iPad using the PDF expert app, uploaded it to Dropbox, downloaded it from Dropbox on a PC laptop, and converted it to .docx.  Above is the result.  When the .pdf file is opened with Adobe reader the highlighting is as it should be (words are visible through highlighting)

With what?

  • How can i save my work pdf files and personal pdf files separately in my ipadmini

    Hi,
    I would like some help on separating my personal and work pdf files in my ipad. Currently i saved everything in ibook but find it unprofessional when i have to show my clients my work
    Is there any other way to save my work pdf files separately?
    trena.c

    If you still would like to use Ibooks you can add Collections. i.e.. work pdf's
    View your collections, add a new one.
    Now go to the pdf's you want to add to that collection and move them to the new collection you have just created.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I save/download a PDF file  as an actual PDF that opens in Adobe Reader?

    When I save/download a PDF from Google Chrome it always saves as an Internet Explorer file instead of a PDF that opens in Adobe Reader.
    Why is this?
    And how can I fix it?
    I really need PDF files for school and work.

    What means "an Internet Explorer file"; what is the file type / extension?
    Also, how do you "save/download" these files?

    How do I sae an email attachment to my 3G iPhone (in this case I want to save a PDF file sent to me as an attachment).
    Thks

    You can save the email to a folder. The PDF in reality is saved to the phone in the mail directories folder, and can always be opened and read from your mail app. If you want to save it to your computer, then you can either email it to yourself or download a file sharing app from the appstore.

  • How can I save a rotated pdf file?

    I have received a pdf file of many pages in landscape orientation that need to be saved in portrait orientation.  I know how to rotate the file, but how can I save the rotated document?

    Hello Laurie,
    Unfortunately this does not work with Adobe Reader, but with Adobe Acrobat or similar programs (Google could be your friend ) BUT you could try Acrobat free for 30 days, if you'd like. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

  • How can I convert a PDF file in Hebrew to docx format?

    The convert options do no not cover Hebrew.

    Hey,
    Adobe ExportPDF online service does not support Hebrew PDF to get converted into Word.
    It converts PDF files containing content in various western languages, including English, French, German, Spanish, and Italian, and Japanese.
    You might need to fill the feature request form for the same:

  • Spool to PDF - Problems with downloading PDF file when converting with job

    Hi all!
    I've got a problem. I've got a program that writes a smartform into the spool. After that, I am using the function modules RSTS_GET_ATTRIBUTES and CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF to convert it into PDF. I retrieve a internal table with the binary content for the PDF file. Now i can download the file to the desktop by using the method cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download.
    But there is a problem: when the spool excesses 99 pages, the function module CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF asks the user via popup if the PDF should be created in background. If the user commits, the internal tables that should contain the binary PDF data is emtpy. A background job writes the binary data into the spool. The user has got an empty file that will be generated by cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download.
    So, is it possible to suppress the popup to create the PDF allways online? Or how can I write the PDF file if there will be create any spool id in background? You'll find my current code below.

    Creating a PDF file with over 99 pages through SAP seems rather unreasonable to me. What are you printing - Encyclopedia Britannica? For cripes sake... Have you thought about creating more than one spool request or using something completely different? Why do you have to do this through spool? You can get Smartform output directly into PDF, there are a lot of example out there.
    The only solution that comes to mind is rather brutal - create a copy of the function module and get rid of the popup. Although it just might time out after that...

  • Problem sending pdf files to convert to Word format

    When I try to send a pdf file to be converted to Word format, I keep getting error message.  "Unable to send"  What's the problem?

    Are you using the ExportPDF service?  How do you "send"?

  • Lock a PDF file when converted from Smartform

    Hello Experts,
    In our current project we have an urgent requirement to apply a Lock to a PDF document
    so it cannot be amended. This is a PDF document and not an Adobe interactive
    form, which currently cannot be used on the project. We are seeking help from
    other colleagues who have had successful experience in achieving the creation
    of a lock to the PDF document which is generated as an output from a SAP Smart
    Form and then e-mailed to the recipient, in this case end Customers, therefore
    integrity of information to prevent changes is a legal requirement. We are
    aware of an encrypted password option but in this case we need to apply a lock
    to the PDF document.
    Many Thanks in advance,
    Kind Regards,
    Nikhil

  • Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File Save.

    I am using Mountain Lion (10.8.2) and I was using Adobe Reader version 9. In the past, I've always been able to print to file using the File -> Print dialogue but all of a sudden it stopped working. I read somewhere that installing the latest version of Adobe Reader (version 11) would remove the old printer, so I did so. It took me about an hour on version 11 to even find the pdf print to file option, but I am getting the same message. For what it's worth, when I try print to file from Microsoft Word, I have no problem. I have no idea why things changed all of a sudden, but does anyone have any idea how I can get this working again?

    I checked with Adobe.  No luck. 
    Allow me to clarify my problem: 
    I have Adobe Reader XI. I also use a Mac--imac and a MacBook Pro.   My adobe was updated on 12/24.  Prior to that point, I could open my print dialogue box and there was a PDF tab on the bottom left.  In the drop down menu there were many choices, including but not limited to Open in PDF Preview, Print PDF, Save PDF, email PDF.  If I selected one page of 30 pages from a document saved in Adobe, I could extract just that one page and save it or email it, without having to send the entire document.   After the update, when I open a PDF file using ADOBE READER XI, and then open the print dialogue box, and follow those same steps, I get the message "Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save."   My question is why is this feature now unavailable and is there a way to fix it? 
    The answer I got from Adobe was that Adobe never had this function, so it must have been via my print or preview programs..which are apple.  Does anyone have any thoughts?
    Thank you.

    Hello pf1tarac, I don't believe that is possible. In order to create a PDF file, you would need Adobe Acrobat or some other PDF compatible product to save a scan to the PDF format.
    There are some free PDF programs available.  Here  is a link to one of them.
