Try saving to disk first and then opening the file.

Adobe Reader could not open '7.1.2.1 Wuxi Cold Genesys CG0070 Stability Protocol.doc' because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged (for example, it was sent as an email attachment and wasn't correctly decoded).

Adobe Acrobat 8 Standard Question - Converting PDF to word document

Question: I currently have Adobe Acrobat 8. I need to convert a PDF to word document. I know how to do that but the outcome of the word document sometimes varies as to retaining the exact formatting. How can I retain exact formatting? Is there something that I'm not doing that I need to be doing in order to retain the formatting. Also do newer versions (Adobe Acrobat 11 (Standard or Pro?)) do a better job of converting and retaining formatting?

Retaining the exact formatting is not possible in practice or in theory because Word documents are nothing like PDFs. For example, Word will cheerfully reflow text onto new lines or pages, while this will never happen with a PDF.
That said, Adobe keep trying to get closer to what people need. Sometimes this results in complex parts of the file being made into an uneditable graphic or text box.
Bottom line is you can get the basics into Word and then (according to your time, experience, and the abilities of Word) you might be able to reconstruct.
On no account convert official forms to Word.

What plugin do I need to open a PDF in InDesign?

What plugin do I need to open a PDF in InDesign? I have twice lost my changes in an InDesignfile but I have saved in in PDF form. I want to open it in InDesign but it says a plugin may be missing.

You can't OPEN a PDF file in InDesign. This has never been possible.
You can PLACE a PDF file. A placed PDF is treated as a graphic, you cannot edit it. If you choose Import Options, you can choose which page(s) of the PDF to place.

Why can't I open a PDF in Word? I have Microsoft Office:Mac 2011

Why can't I open a PDF document in Word. I have Microsoft Office:Mac 2011 installed because I have to email PDF and word documents to my clients. Please help.
I currently have been viewing them in Preview. Is that the only way?

Word is a text processor, not a PDF viewer. You can embed a PDF document in a Word document, but that's pretty much it. Besides Preview there are numerous third-party applications that can also view PDFs such as Adobe Reader.

Hot to display PDF and Word documents as an attachment in OBIEE Reports

Hi,
From few of Oracle threads I learnt that we can store the files in a server locaiton and read it thro a URL. What I am trying to do is, PDF or Word document will be stored in database as BLOB fields. This BLOB field needs to be come as an attachment in OBIEE Reports and by clicking that icon, it uses the local applicaiton PDF reader or a word applicaiton and open the attachment, just like how we open an attachment from a E-mail. Can you please help me with the possible methods of that. I can provide you more information incase if you need.
Thanks
Augesthi

As long as you used the paper-clip Attach icon, that should be fine.
The entire document appears to you because your Mac recognizes the document type, and displays it for you, saving you from having to mouse around and find a Reader for it. You can still use the Save icon to save a copy of only the attachment.
To avoid problems with other email readers, be sure the checkbox [√] send windows-friendly attachments is checked.
I addition, some email readers cannot cope with any attachments positioned at any place in the document other than at the very end. So make sure you move the cursor to the absolute end of the document before clicking "Attach".
If all else fails, send an email that says, "attachment to follow", then send the attachment right away in a separate email, with nothing else in the body of the message. Some use the Subject abbreviation (nt) to indicate "no text", that is, no words typed in the message portion.

Hi Sara
From the document
        When I try the file save as other, nothing happens after I click on Word or Excel Online.
        There is no way I can click on the convert button on Export PDF.
        I am logged in as you can see.
        When I go to Cloud Acrobat I can see the file there but only as a PDF.
        There is no word document there.
        As you can see I have tried this more than once.
I just don’t know what to do from there.
Hope you can help
Many thanks

2. Link to URL -> The Result was html file opened in different window.
3.IFrame and attaching the file in project -> it was resulted in html file getting dispalyed in IFrame.
Now if I want to extend the functionality for PDF or word document, is the procedure same or different
Can anyone enlighten me on this
Any thoughts on this.
Thanks in Advance

Hi srikant,
You can also display word documents and pdf by uploading it in the server.
For this you'll have to create aliases in the server for the corressponding documents that you want to uploaad.
Go to visual admin ->services->httpprovider.
Then click the tab 'aliases'. Here you can give the name of your alias and also the document to which the alias should point(first upload the document to the server machine and then give the path here ) .
Now when you type http://server:port/aliasname your document will open in the browser. You can display it either through your iFrame or linktourl as you prefer.
Hope my effort will help you.
Regards,
Rahul.

I downloaded Lion last evening and now I can't open any of my word documents - HELP

I downloaded Lion last night onto my MacBook pro and now I can't open any of my word documents...

What happens when you try? Any error messages? What version of Word? Office 2004 does not work with Lion. You need Office 2008 or Office 2011.

I can't open any of my Word documents on my Apple Mac. The error code is EXC_CRASH (SIGABRT) and the blame module name is WordArt. The documents are still there, and I can open them on my iPad when I email them there. Any ideas?

Uhhhhh... Thank GOD... Got all of my files.
Spent some time on the phone with Apple Care... who was great to deal with but actually... not as helpful as I was hoping. It was suggested that I try DiskWarrior 4 to try to recover the files. $108 later, I had no files.
More calls with Apple Care and they were pretty sure that everything was gone since once the External drive was installed, like a moron, I let TimeMachine go ahead and back up my new MacBook... so it overwrote who knows how many gig that was my entire MacBook.
I wasn't giving up so I called Maxtor, the manufacturer of the external drive itself. They suggested file recovery software from I365... which is also a Seagate company (the makers of the drive). The suggested I simply use their demo because the demo version would find the files. If it found them, I could buy the software to restore them.
It found them! Another $129 after and I was able to restore all of them back to my old PC laptop.
NOW, I just need to figure out how to get the 50gig of HD video files off of my old laptop now and into my Mac and IMovie so I can actually make some DVDs out of them!
I get that Macs and PCs are different formats but I think it is ridiculous that formatting still means basically just wiping out or at least treating massive lots of old data as if it isn't there. There's gotta be a better way to do that.

Pages will not open any of my word documents. The I works documentation states that it will open them. What don't I know

Pages will not open any of my word documents. The I works documentation states that it will open them. I have tries using the open under the file menu and I have tried dragginh the file to the pages 09 icon. Either way I get the following Message "The document “*****.docx” couldn’t be opened.What do I need to do to open them?

hello, the most likely cause is a firewall/security program preventing firefox from accessing the internet. see [[Firewalls]] for information on how to configure them correctly.
also make sure that firefox is set to directly connect to the internet in firefox > options > advanced > network > connection - settings... in there "no proxy" should be selected for normal use cases.
[[Firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]]

Transfer pdf or word documents to ipad from macbook

how can i transfer pdf and words documents of my iMac to an ipad 2

Many options, depending on what you want to do with them.
mail them to yourself
use iTunes
use the desktop transfer programs that go along with Office Suite apps (i.e. Documents to Go, Quickoffice, etc)
use Goodreader (a PDF/document reader as well as a file transfer and management app)
use a cloud storage app (such as Dropbox or Sugarsync).
If you want to edit the documents, you'll need an app that can do so. If you just want to read them, you have more options.
