Pdf to word question (Acrobat 7 pro)

Hello, I am trying to conver a pdf file to a word file. What I want is Acrobat converts each pdf page as an image on a separate page in the word file. I noticed Acrobat always tris to convert pdf to editable text, only when that failes, it resorts to image conversion. Is there a way to force image conversion? Thanks ahead.

The conversion to text you have mentioned is an option in the scanner input. Just turn it off in the future. If it has already been converted, that is what you have. If you would like a set of graphics for all of the pages, just use the Save As and select TIFF. Once you get the TIFF files, import that graphics back to a new PDF or simply import into WORD directly.

    With Acrobat XII? You don't; because there is no XII right now.
    Using Acrobat XI the click path is:
    File :: Save As Other :: Microsoft Word

  • Converting pdf to word Adobe Acrobat XI Pro trial

    I am using a 30 day trial of Adobe Acrobat XI Pro, when I convert a pdf to word doc, it has several hidden letters & symbols, is this because it is a trial?

    The trial is fully functional so, no.
    That being said, the Acrobat forum is at http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat. You'll want to ask your questions there.

  • Cannot convert pdf to word in Acrobat X PRO

    I have just installed Acrobat X PRO on a PC and the user wants to make some of his PDF files into Microsoft Word. I go to the edit PDF and select the file then select MS Word and when I hit convert it says please sign in to a paid account...... This is a paid version of Acrobat so why can't I convert these files? I did add the serial number when it was first installed. PLEASE HELP

    You have both Adobe Reader (which offers one kind of conversion, paid for one way), and Adobe Acrobat Pro (which offers another kind of conversion, paid another way). Be sure you understand that these are two different bits of software, and that you can and must choose which one to use.

  • Why can't I create Fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro and upload to Dreamweaver?

    I can create fillable PDF Forms using Adobe Acrobat X Pro. I can email them to someone using Adobe Reader (free) and they can fill them, save and email to me. But when I upload the form to Dreamweaver CS5, the form is not fillable. And yes, I saved it as a Reader Extended PDF-Enable Additional Features.

    I see no reason for this form to fail in Reader. Some questions for you.
    1. On the system with Adobe Reader, what is the system and the version of Adobe Reader?
    2. Are you viewing the PDF in a browser on the system with Reader, or in an Adobe Reader window?
    3. If it's a browser
    (a) what is the browser
    (b) if you download the file instead, and open directly in Reader, what happens?

  • Can't open any PDF file with Adobe Acrobat XI Pro

    I have tried to open multiple Acrobat files but none will open. I get a FATAL ERROR message saying: "Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server."  I've created documents in word and publisher and am able to convert to pdf format but after the pdf file has been created I cannot open to view and I get the error message. Please help! Thank you!

    No I am thinking that the problem is with Acrobat XI Pro. Because as previously noted I can create a Word document and save as a PDF, the PDF document will be created by Acrobat XI Pro but will not open with Acrobat XI Pro, which normally happens automatically upon creating the PDF file from say Word, Exel, Publisher, etc. When I try to open with Acrobat XI Pro it give me the FATAL ERROR message saying: "Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server". Since I could not open any of my PDF documents with Acrobta XI Pro, because I had Acrobat XI Pro as my default PDF creater and reader, I installed Adobe Reader, hoping that it would allow me to view the PDF documents that I had just created with Acrobat XI Pro and it did. The problem is that I cannot open Acrobat XI Pro to creat or edit or add PDF restrictions on  a PDF document straight from Acrobat XI Pro, but I can create a, say Word document, and save as a PDF file. Before installing Adobe Reader I could not open, see or edit the just created PDF file created through Word it is just now after installing Acrobat Reader.
    Also worth noting.
    I have been told that this same problem happened sometime ago with Adobe Acrobat X Pro (Vesion 10) and that the problem was fixed by editing something within the registry. Does anyone know anything about that? Thanks!

  • Problems printing PDF's using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro

    During the last two weeks, I have been unable to print a PDF from my Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. They appear okay on the screen, but print as gibberish.
    After consulting the forums, one workaround suggested was to print as image. Tried it, also prints gibberish.
    Another suggestion to update my printer software, did it. Still prints as gibberish. My priner is an Epston Stylus Photo R220.
    I'm a writer, not a software technician. I am not using a bootleg copy of the program, but an educational version, so Adobe won't offer me any advice over the phone without payment.
    Anything else I could try before paying?

    I have same problem as described above, but not always.  Seems to depend on the web page I am trying to print to Adobe. One consistent culprit is Bank of America.  Looks okay until I print to Adobe Acrobat 9 or 10. Then it's gibberish.  i had to copy to Word and then print Word to Acrobat or printer.  
    . Various computers,
    . same problem with either Acrobat 9 or 10.
    . Not a problem printing to Acrobat from a Word or Excel or Outlook document
    . Only from certain websites and not the entire page, only the OCR part. The objects: logos, pictures are okay, only text is messed up.
    Definitely would like Adobe to fix this.

  • Adobe reader XI no longer plays video or audio embedded in PDF created with Adobe Acrobat X Pro.

    Help please!
    Embedded video and audio content in PDFs created using Adobe Acrobat X Pro does NOT play on some school computers after Acrobat Reader XI is installed. The media content played fine with Acrobat X. This is seen with both XP and Windows 7 machines.
    Bizarrely, other machines with Windows 7 and XP play the video and audio content fine when Acrobat XI is installed.
    Please help, as the PDFs are the delivery mechanism for a very effective literacy programme for children, and this bug has halted delivery for a considerable number of schools and thousands of children are in trouble!

    Hi Raman,
    I think we have found the source of the problem. It relates to how different browsers are detected by Adobe when updating Flash Player.
    To make the videos play within PDFs either from DVD or on the hard drive, it is now essential that Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin (now version 11.5.502.113) is installed. (Adobe Reader 10 had its own internal flash player, so an external player was not needed)
    We have discovered that, when Google Chrome is the browser, automatic updates of Flash do NOT download this programme. Flash 11 ActiveX is the only programme that is downloaded, and the videos do NOT play from DVD or harddrive.
    Also, it is not possible to manually download Adobe Flash Player 11 Plugin as this option is not presented to the user. Presumably Adobe have set it up this way, because the Adobe site recognises Chrome is being used, and assumes that the computer does not need the plugin flash player, as Chrome has its own internal flash player. However, other programmes may need it!
    We went to FileHippo to download the non-IE version (even though we were using Chrome!) at
    http://www.filehippo.com/download_flashplayer_firefox/
    Then the videos played from DVD or harddrive.
    I have not been able to test how this works with other browsers. I hope that Adobe can sort this problem out asap!
    regards
    Buffy

  • Word 2007 Acrobat X Pro Plugin adds garbage to PDF Headers

    I'm generating PDFs from Word 2007 using the Acrobat X Pro plugin, which is inserting garbage into some of my headers during the process. I can actually see it happen during PDF generation. The Word headers and footers are enabled and the garbage suddenly appears. For some reason, its usually an 0B prefix attached to the headers.
    It doesn't happen to all headers and not with any pattern or consistency.
    Any ideas?

    Thanks, Steve.   It's just aggravating that I have to go through an extra set of steps to do this on a Mac.
    I appreciate the help!

    If you have Acrobat Pro Extended that is a PC Product. You've clicked on wrong Forum. Go back to main page the click on Acrobat and choose PC forum. Extend has such features as XML based PDF Forms which Acrobat Pro Mac can't handle.

  • Problems converting pdf to Word in Acrobat X Standard

    I am not able to convert pdf docs into Word using acrobat x.  I have tried running OCR before attempting the converstion but that does not help.  It goes all the way through allowing me to save the document as a docx but then I get the message "Save As failed to process the document.  No file was created".  Any ideas?

    You have both Adobe Reader (which offers one kind of conversion, paid for one way), and Adobe Acrobat Pro (which offers another kind of conversion, paid another way). Be sure you understand that these are two different bits of software, and that you can and must choose which one to use.

  • Unable to find Adobe PDF resource files on Acrobat X Pro

    I have a Windows 7 32-bit machine that receives the following error when attempting to create a PDF from Microsoft Office Word 2010: "Unable to find "Adobe PDF" resource files. "Acrobat PDFMaker" You must have Administrator priveleges to install these files. Please contact your local systems administrator" The user is a local administrator. Note: This does NOT happen on Excel 2010, only Word.
    I've tried uninstalling and re-installing Acrobat Pro, running the installer in safe mode from the default local administrator account, printing directly to the PDF printer and following several other suggestions from similar threads.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?

  • Security Level set to High, Windows 7, Word 2010, Acrobat X Pro

    I had Acrobat 9 Pro and could create PDF files from Word 2010 files by going directly into Acrobat.
    Then, one day, I received an error msg: "Secruty Level set to High, please run the application which created this document ..."
    I figured that MS has installed some sort of security update which prevented me from creating PFD files from Word 2010 files.
    So I waited for Acrobat X to ship, which I just bought for $199 (on top of the $449 for Acrobat 9 Pro).
    I just installed the new version of Acrobat X Pro, but I get the same error message.
    PLEASE HELP!!

    Thanks, but the error msg is actually an Acrobat msg.
    I called the Adobe Tech Support and spent an hour on the phone with the gentleman. We went through many configurations and I'm still trying to resolve this issue (I'll be reinstalling Acrobat X in a minute to see if our changes make a difference).
    I believe the trouble lies in the fact that I'm on a 64-bit system, with an MS-issued security update. Hard to say exactly what the fiasco is all about just now.
