I am trying to export a pdf to word but the document keeps "loading " for a long period of time and won't complete?

Hi Jennee,
You're using the Save As > Microsoft Word command in Acrobat (and what version are you using)? At what point does the status bar in the lower-right corner hang up (Pre-processing, Recontructing, and so on)? What type of content is there in the PDF, and how large is it? Are you having Acrobat run OCR on the file as it converts (you can check this by clicking Settings in the Save As dialog box)? Do you have trouble saving other PDF files as Word documents?
A lot of questions, I know. But I need to know a bit more about the document to determine why it's hanging up on export.
Thanks
Sara

  • I am trying to export a pdf to word but the export fails to create a new file.  Is there anything I need to do?

    I go to Export File to a Word document.  I get an error message "Save As failed to process this document.  No file was created".

    To go from PDF to Word...
    If you go to File>Properties, check to see if your PDF is tagged. This gives the PDF structure and makes export much more reliable.
    If the PDF is really too large, you can try the optimizer to cut it down. File>Save As Other>Optimized PDF, or split the file up.

  • I am trying to export a PDF to Excel but it just says loading and doesnt go any further?

    When I try to export a PDF to Excel it just saying "loading" it will not go past that am I doing something wrong?

    Hi kymperez2010,
    I'm sure you're doing nothing wrong. Please try the following:
    Clear the browser cache, and log back in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf
    Make sure that you're using a supported web browser (see System Requirements | Adobe Acrobat Pro and Online Services).
    Make sure that the file you're trying to convert is 100 MB or smaller (even if you are working with a smaller file, if the PDF has a large number of pages, it may be too complex for the ExportPDF service to convert before timing out.
    Try a different PDF to check whether you're able to convert any PDFs in general.
    Let's start there. Please let us know how it goes.

    Hi NWL1,
    Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the iPhone won't update and is stuck. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a great day,

    Ernie-
    Thanks for responding...but still have a oroblem. Here's what I'm doing:
    In Aperture I choose a "version" that has been Adjusted (croped, etc.).
    - Go to "File"...'Export"..."Version"
    - In next window for "Export preset" I choose "JPEG-Fit within 1024x1024"
    - Click on "Export version"
    The exported version then showes up in "Finder" under "Pictures"
    - Next I open "Mail" (version 5.2)
    - Adderss email to friends in England.
    - Click on attachment (paper clip)
    - Choose my "version" from "pictures"
    - Back in Mail, click on "Format"..."Make Plain Text"
    - Send
    My friends receive it as "bmp", not JPEG, with no Metadata.
    If I do the same procedure but under "File" choose "Export Master", they receive it as JPEG and also the Metadata.....BUT, of course, no Adjustments, such as croping, that were made to the "Version".
    What am I doing wrong? Is there any way to save the "Version" as a "Master" and then send it as a "Master"?
    Thanks,
    Nelson

  • I'm trying to convert a PDF to Word. The convert box will not let me choose a format.

    I am signed in and trying to convert a PDF to Word. I can't get the convert box let me choose the format (won't light up) What am I doing wrong?

    If I understand correctly, you are using ExportPDF. If so, you should ask in here:

  • I am trying to convert a pdf to word but it fails and asks me to purchase adobe export

    The file you are trying to access could not be found. The file may have been deleted or moved in another session.  I keep getting this error message although I can open the pdf file

    Hi asjoseph,
    It sounds like you're reporting two different problems--is that correct? One, that you're unable to convert using ExportPDF, and another that you're trying to open or convert PDF? Is that correct?
    For the first issue, make sure that you're signed in to the ExportPDF service. You can log in directly at cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf.
    For the second part of your question, please tell me a bit more about where that error is occurring, and what steps you're taking before the error appears.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.

  • Cannot Convert PDF to Word because the "document is too large". What can I do?

    I am trying to convert a document to word from PDF, but acrobat.com keeps returning a message that the 'document is too large'. What are some our options?

    What's the size of the source doc?  ExportPDF conversions are limited to 100 MB.

    Hi,
    I tried to convert PDF through Acrobat.
    But it seems there is some corruption in file format.

  • IDCS3 crashes when trying to Export or PDF

    IDCS3 crashes when trying to Export or PDF.
    What are the steps I should take to resolve this?
    Thanks!

    figured it out:
    - power off mac and turn back on while holding down Command + R (dont do it on an external keyboard just to be safe)
    - choose the re-install Lion option (I'm sure there is another way to re-install Lion, this is just the way I did it, not saying its the best or only method)
    - DO NOT INSTALL MACBOOK (Mid 2012) Software Update 1.0 - THIS SCREWS ADOBE UP!
