My Acrobat can't Save as other Word document?

All of a sudden my Acrobat Pro has stopped converting even small pdf’s to a Word document?
Have tried to reinstall Acrobat, but no cure?

Have you tried the repair and updates on the help menu? Can you convert it to anything else?

  • Can I preset the default save feature in Acrobat 10 to save a MS Word document as a "REDUCED SIZE PDF"?

    I use MS Word for Mac 2011 to create documents and quotations. I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.1.12 on a MAC. I want to save the MS Word file as a "REDUCED SIZE PDF" first, without having to first save it as a normal PDF, then re-save it as the reduced size. How would I do this?? Can this be preset as my default>

    You cannot. Because this option both takes much longer and reduces the quality of files, it has to be chosen specifically.
    In any case, when you save a PDF file from Word. this process does not involve Acrobat or Adobe software in any way.

  • How can i save and download word documents on my ipad without the pages app

    Need to know how to save documents on my ipad so i can share the same version of documents between my computer and my ipad on the same network. I do not have the pages app. and Most of the documents are either pdfs of word docs. so need to be able to save them on ipad and retrieve them when i am on the move. Pls help?

    You have to have an app on the iPad that is compatible with the particular file type that you want to save, edit or share. You can look at any of the word processing apps - Pages is one, Documents to Go, Quick Office Pro - but you have to have one like that in order to save and edit Word files.
    With pdf files - iBooks will work to save them - but that's all. Other apps like GoodReader will let you annotate them.
    You have to decide which app will serve your needs best and them download them in order to save, edit and share those file types.

  • I can't save a revised Word Document

    After making a change to a Word Doc, I received the following message:  "A file error has occurred. Check your network connections or make sure the disk is properly inserted and not defective"  After this statement is an OK button.  When I click on OK, the pop up goes away but comes back when I try to close it again.  I am also not able to send the doc to email.  I would be grateful for advice?

    Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details like storage locations, settings for the swap files and so on.

  • After installing Mavericks I can no longer save a new word document or pdf by typing the name of the destination folder in the Finder window.  The save button greys out.  Solutions anyone?

    Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folders. In OS X 10.9 there are two sandboxes, while in 10.8 there is only one. If you're running a version older than 10.8, this comment isn't applicable.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder—not just its contents—to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
    Log out and log back in. Launch Mail and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window.
    This action will delete any custom Mail stationery that you have created. If you want to preserve it, ask for instructions.
    If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.MailServiceAgent
    Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

  • I just accidentally 'Don't Save'd a Word document. CAn I get it back?

    I just inadvertently "Don't Save"ed a Word document. It had not been Save-ed or Named at any point. CAn I get it back?

    You are correct. Time Machine can't backup a file that is not saved. And in "bopdog"s question above, I agree that her chances of getting her Word file back are slim to none. Bopdog specified that s/he never saved the Word file at all. In my experience and testing, I have never seen a Microsoft Office program create an Auto-Recover file of an open, but unsaved file, except when a program crash has occurred. I have seen Excel create an Auto-Recover file of an open document that had never been saved, when Excel crashed. So your point is well taken, and is likely correct in bopdog's case.
    However, Microsoft Office for Mac 2011 programs, do save files automatically. If you have not changed the preferences, Office will automatically save an open, previously-saved, file every 10 minutes to the file location of Microsoft Office Auto-Recover documents (by default: Users > usernamehomefolder > Library > Application Support > Microsoft > Office > Office 2011 AutoRecovery). And if you use Time Machine, it will back up the Auto-Recover files every hour.
    There are numerous support and forum Q&As across the internet where posters have basically said "if you click 'Don't Save' you are doomed." And there are numerous Q&As that explain where to find MS Office Auto-Recover files, and others that suggest Time Machine as a way to recover files. My post was meant to point out the fact that the combination of Auto-Recover and Time Machine can often allow you to recover a file (with at least some of your otherwise lost work) when you accidentally click "Don't Save."
    The reason for my enthusiasm in the post is that I had just recovered several hours of work using the method I described. Here's what happened in my specific case:
    I was working on a Word document that had been saved previously.
    I spent several hours over the course of a workday bouncing between the open Word document and multitasking with other programs and files.
    In the evening I went back to work on the file for a while, then I got distracted.
    I went to install some new software and when my Mac asked me to Restart, I blithely shut down all my programs.
    When Word asked, I accidentally clicked "Don't Save" on the file that I had been working on off-and-on all day, without saving.
    I shut down Word normally and restarted the computer.
    I then re-opened the Word file (opened recent documents) and realized that hours and hours of work were gone!
    I went to Auto-Recover and there was no Auto-Recover file for the Word document. That is the way Auto-Recover unfortunately works. If you say "Don't Save" it assumes you mean it, and it deletes the Auto-Recover file. You can't get it back.
    However, Time Machine backed up the Auto-Recover file. It was still there in my last Time Machine backup. In my case I didn't lose one minute of my work, because the Word file had been sitting there open for hours, without me working on it, and Time Machine backed up the Auto-Recover file every hour.
    So yes, you can recover a Word file that YOU did not (recently) save, even if you clicked "Don't Save," because Auto-Recover saves files automatically, and Time Machine backs up the Auto-Recover files. It may not work in every case, but it sure saved my butt a couple days ago. So forgive my enthusiasm, but I was pretty stoked to get a few hours of my life back, and wanted to share this with the Mac community.

    Verizon iPhone 5, 64GB black - is anyone having issues with a very choppy conversation while talking on the phone?  Both my wife and I have the same phones and are both having the same issue.  We can only hear every other word of the person we are talking to.  This happens at home, on the road and in the downtown area while calling both cellphones and landlines. It is intermittent, so we don't know exactly when it will reoccur.  Absolutely no problem with data.  The data speed is great.

  • How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture file?

    How can I change a Microsoft Word document file into a picture or jpeg file? I am wanting to make the image I created my background on my macbook pro.

    After I had the document image the way I wanted it, I saved it as a web page and went from there. Below are the steps starting after I did the "save as" option in Word:
    1) Select "Save As Web Page". I changed the location from documents to pictures when the window came up to save it as a web page.
    2) Go to "Finder" on you main screen, or if it's on your main toolbar at the bottom.
    3) Click on the "Pictures" tab and find the file you just re-saved as a web page. (I included "web page" or something similar in the new title so I could easily find the correct file I was looking for)
    4) Open the correct file and then "right click" on the actual image. (Use 2 fingers to do so on a Mac)
    5) Select 'Use Image As Desktop Picture", and voilà! The personally created image, or whatever it is that you wanted, is now your background.
    **One problem I encountered while doing this is that the image would show up like it was right-aligned in relation to the whole screen. The only way I could figure how to fix this was to go back to the very original document in Word, (the one before it was saved as a web page), and move everything over to the left.
    I hope this helps someone else who was as frustrated as I was with something that I thought would have been very simple to do! If you have any tips or suggestions of your own, please feel free to share. : )

  • Did I miss something in the fine print? I installed Lion and and come to find out, I can no longer open any Word documents or Excel spreadsheets as they are no longer supported (being PowerPC apps).  Seriously?!?!?!?!!   What are my alternatives?

    Did I miss something in the fine print? I installed Lion and and come to find out, I can no longer open any Word documents or Excel spreadsheets as they are no longer supported (apparently because they are PowerPC apps).  Seriously?!?!?!?!!   What are my alternatives?

    Hi Mary and Matthew
    You might find it helpful to "try before you buy" - there is a 30 day free trial offer for Office for Mac 2011, accessible from M's .com website.
    You may be able to use this period to open and resave your old documents in a format that enables you to switch instead to using Apple's iWorks apps moving forward.
    I initially intended to do something similar, but ended up buying Office as it provided an easier way (for me, at least) to continue working with years worth of old emails, letters, spreadsheets and other documents (from my PC days) without risking damage to their integrity, formatting, etc.

  • How can i save a large pdf document in two parts

    how can i save a large pdf document in two parts

    i cannot figure this out, either. and i am also not able to set a custom page size to tile (in this case, tabloid/landscape). the dialog box defaults to my ppd for my epson printer (max size = letter) even when i select the drop down for "printing" to a post script file. I've been using illustrator since it's first release and i'm really surprised that this is rudimentary step in finalizing docs for release has been complicated.

    My safari won't let me view a pdf link, nor can I save it as a document. How can I view these pdfs and links?

    Have you installed Adobe Reader and its associated plugin? AFAIK, that's the preferred if not the only way to open PDFs in an embedded view within Safari.

  • When attempting to "save as" a word document and selecting micrsoft word as the "save as type", it no longer will save it in a word icon document, the icon is just a blank document symbol and thus cannot email this document as before.

    when attempting to "save as" a word document and selecting micrsoft word as the "save as type", it no longer will save it in a word icon document, the icon is just a blank document symbol and thus cannot email this document

    Here are my two cents.
    The resources defining the file formats which Pages may import or export are stored in the file :
    Macintosh HD:Applications:iWork '09:Pages.app:Contents:Info.plist
    Assuming that you didn't installed the Developer tools, go to my iDisk (address below)
    Download :
    Pref Setter.app.zip
    Unpack the archive.
    Open the file "Info.plist" with Pref Setter.
    Open the entry entitled :  CFBundleDocumentsTypes
    Open the items 9, 10, 11, 12
    The normal contents is :
    Double check the parameters available for items 9 & 10.
    What you get may be linked to some oddity in these resources.
