Printing to PDF using Chrome, and then save as a Word doc.

I want to print a webpage using Chrome to PDF, and then save that PDF to a Word document.
The problem is occurring when saving the PDF to a Word doc, as the Word document is blank.
Im using Adobe Acrobat X, Chrome version 32.0.1700.107 m.
(This question may seem a little strange/pointless, however current workflows within my workplace requires documents to be saved from online as PDFs, sent as PDFs, and staff then either save as PDFs or some convert the files to word documents as necessary)
I can already do this using Firefox, but saving to PDF using Chrome is significantly faster.

I'm sure you're aware that here you have an Acrobat user-2-user forum. Note a generic Q&A forum for non-Adobe products that, coincidentally, can create PDF.
The quality of Export from Acrobat or Adobe's online subscription services very much depends upon the "inner quality" of how the PDF was created.
GIGO is very much operative.
Good In Good Out -- Garbage In Garbage Out. Sounds like you have the later.
Regardless what is making the PDF is not Acrobat. Consequently "process support" would be with the software house that is responsible for the process.
Be well...

    We use a doc template to create a purchased part spec document and then save them as pdf formatted files.  These part spec documents are also appended with the datasheets for these purchased parts.  When we want to update/revise the document, is there a method, using Acrobat, to make those updates to the pdf, or must we go back to the doc template and basically generate a new document?
    Also, our resulting pdf documents aren't searchable.  How can we generate pdf documents that are searchable?  I may want to search for a part value or name within the body of these pdf documents, but currently can't do that...very inconvenient.
    Can you assist?

    Not totally sure about the search issue. A lot depends on how you created the PDF and what is in the datasheets you attached (like are they graphics?). The doc portion should be searchable as long as you used print to the Adobe PDF printer or PDF Maker. For your use, it may be that the print is adequate. However, the result should be searchable (unless maybe you had a form with filled in fields and created the PDF with PDF Maker. I think the form data may be retained in form fields and the fields are not searchable. In that case, a print might be a better procedure. (it would help to know the versions of WORD and Acrobat as well as the exact process you used to create the PDF.)
    If the appended data sheets do not change, then you might try opening the original PDF and then using Replace Pages to replace the file created from the DOC file.

  • Can I edit with Smart Print the same way I could with Smartweb Printing and then save as PDF files.

    With Vista basic and SmartWeb Printing you had the option to edit your pages and then to save or print them in the PDF format. This way you could customise various pages pages, save them to a file and then reopen the whole file to see if you wanted to make any further changes before printing the final copy.

    Maybe you don't need that. I prefer using Apple's Image Capture for scanning.
    Right now I am working on scanning documents into PDFs. The Canon software lets me create multipage PDFs which is something I've been wanting to do. My question is, is it best to scan images as JPEGs and then save them as a multipage PDF or is it best to scan into PDF directly (which the scanner seems to offer as well) and then save as a multipage PDF? I'm thinking in terms of the best optimization of file size vs. image quality and things like that.
    Let the software do it for you. That will be fewer steps for you. Image-based PDFs are going to be large. There is no way around that. If they are too large, you can use Preview's Save As feature and play around with the Quartz Filter.
    Is the scanner actually doing anything differently when scanning into JPEG vs. PDF? Or is the scanning all the same and it's just the saving of the file that is different?
    Scans are scans. The JPEG file format is lossly and will look worse than other types. If you are scanning in photographs, the JPEGs will look good. If you are scanning in crisp text, JPEGS will have lots of artifacts and look bad.
    In general what dpi setting is usually sufficient to use to scan a basic text document without taking up too much file space?
    I pretty much always keep it at 300 unless I need something special or when the original is really small and I intend to blow it up.

  • Add image in uploaded pdf file and then save it specific location using C#

    I need to upload a pdf file and then add image in that file and then save it in specific location. This process should be in C# . Is it feasible or not in Acrobat XI Pro ?

    Hi Irosenth,
                        In 'License & Compliance Services' document provided by Adobe, they specified as
    For server use, installing desktop licenses in a server based environment is generally allowed,
    so long as the total number of users, (not concurrent users) who can access the software
    deployed on that server, do not exceed the Permitted Number of licenses. Usage is defined as
    individuals or entities who “use, download, copy OR otherwise benefit” from the
    functionality of the Software installed on the server.

  • Which Approach?---Scan into JPEGs and then save as PDF or scan into PDF?

    I am now learning to use my Canon Pixma MX870. I installed the full suite of Canon printing, scanning, faxing and whatever else software they provide for this all-in-one.
    There are several different ways you can approach things with this machine which makes it a little confusing. You can do things with a one touch kind of method or you can delve deeper into the menus and adjust lots of settings.

  • When I open a pdf file in Firefox and then save, how do I set the initial directory to be closer to what I want instead of a temp directory?

    When I choose to save a pdf file directly when using Firefox, it works perfectly. However, when I choose to open a pdf instead and then save it, the save directly displayed will always be a temp directory and it would be more convenient for me to choose a directory closer to where most of my files normally go. How do I change this?

    I'm not sure just what you are after. I do see that you have positioned the tree on the labels. I went to the web site for the label company, and their instructions are not too helplful.

    Acrobat on OSX does not use printer preset. Every single time I have to print I have to click printer and then print to load the preset and then click print again from the main dialog. I am printing to a Xerox that has the copier code in the preset so if I don't do this it will not print. This has been broken for in every version I have tried. This extra clicks are taking years off my life. Did I remember to do the extra clicks? I don't know, I guess I will run down the hall and check. Please fix this.

    What operating system are you running? I assume they had you install the latest BIOS. True? If it were mine, I would suggest forcing it to use integrated graphics (in the BIOS) to rule out a problem with the NVidia driver.

  • JPEG/PSD issue--I open a jpeg and edit it (levels, crop) and then "save as" and the save as option shows there are now levels in the image and it wants to save it as a .psd file or a copy with layers.  What am I doing that has these settings appear?

    16bit? Pixels extending beyond the canvas? (from a crop with delete unused pixels turn off).  Have you previously been saving PSD files?
    IME you sometimes have to tell Photoshop that the first save of a session is JPG, and it remembers from there on.  The way to 'tell' Photoshop that JPG, or PDF, or PNG etc are now your preferred format is to Ctrl (Cmd) click on that format in the Save As drop down list.  So long as the file does not have parameters that your chosen format does not support, then this should work for you.
    [EDIT]  Just noticed that you did include 'Crop' in the subject line.  Do you have 'Delete cropped pixels' checked?

    A simple way is to flatten the form fields, which converts the field appearances to regular page contents. You can do this with JavaScript or PDF Optimizer (Advanced > PDF Optimizer > Discard Objects > Flatten form fields). A very nice script that adds a custom menu item can be found here: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/
