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.

    having problems converting pdf to word. I'm not able to convert the file, what do I need to do?

    Hi prates77,
    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble converting files. Are you receiving the conversion error regardless of the file that you try to convert? Does the error occur whether you use the web interface, or convert via Reader? And an odd question: how many files do you have stored in your Acrobat.com account? We have seen reports of this error when there are a large number of files stored in the root folder of your Acrobat.com account.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Problem converting PDFs to Word or Excel, does anyone know why?

    I have been converting PDFs to Word or Excel for several years but lately every time I try an error message comes up saying "an error occurred while trying to AdobeExport PDF online", does anyone know why?

    Como não falo o Ingles, não sei se minha pergunta é correta! Na transformação de um arquivo editado em PDF para transformação em Excxel, noto que essa transformação não esta sendo feita para uma planilha do Excel (13). exemplo. Na planilha em PDF o valor é de R$ 25,00. Na transformação para o Excell 13, Esta constando 2.500. Quando abre essa planilha em PDF para fins de Impressão, ela é toda normal para uma planilha de Excell. Mas, quando faço a transformação de PDF para o Excel, distorce toas as colunas, apresentando um titulo do PDF abrangendo mais colunas. Caso haja uma resposta sobre esse meu problema, peço comunicar-me, em Portugues pelo E.mail  [email protected] ou E.mail [email protected]
    Obrigado

  • 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.

  • Converting PDF to JPG using Acrobat XI Standard

    I know I can convert a PDF into a JPG using Acrobat Pro but I'm wondering if I can do the same using Acrobat XI Standard.  The only thing I've read online is that Standard can convert PDFs into Excel, Word or Power Point docs.

    Yes, you can do this with Acrobat XI Standard. The only export feature that is not available in Std. is the ability to convert to PowerPoint.

  • 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.

    Hi Nick,
    Please try the steps outlined here for your Internet Explorer troubles: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1831
    As for the conversion not being a line-for-line match and having trouble with the images, try disabling the 'Recognize text' function and convert your document again.
    Let us know how it goes!

  • Converting pdf to Word 2003 in Acrobat 9 Pro

    I am using Acrobat 9 Pro.  I want to convert pdfs to Word 2003.  I have followed the instructions to export to Word, but when I get to the dialog box that selects the conversion method, I choose Flowing, which is recommended, and click OK, and I get an error message that my PDF document may be corrupt.  This happens with every pdf, whether it is a form downloaded from the internet or a text document I have created myself.  If I try to convert to RTF instead, it makes the "conversion", but in doing so, it creates a file containing an image that is not editable -- it does not create a plain text, editable file.
    Is the problem that I am using Word 2003?  Word 2003 is not on the list of file formats to which the pdf can be exported, but when I get to that screen, I choose Workshare PDF in Word (which I believe I read somewhere is the correct choice for conversion to Word 2003) as my selection and it gets me to the "conversion method" screen (which gets me to the corruption error message). Again, even if I choose rtf, I do not get an editable document.
    Any ideas???

    Something to try -
    Export the PDF to RTF.
    Open the RTF file with Word Pad.
    Save As (perhaps to a new filename -- 'something_bis.rtf')
    Open this file with MS Word.
    Not particularly surprising that the PDF you posted behaves poorly when 'worked' with Acrobat.
    It is an output of Ghostscript.
    Compounding the awkwardness of export is the fact that the PDF is not a Tagged PDF.
    A significant raison d'etre for Tagged PDF is to support export of PDF content to a word processor application.

  • Why does all alphabets change to capital when converting pdf to word using Adobe Acrobat XI

    Why does all alphabets change to capital when converting pdf to word using Adobe Acrobat XI

    Word 2013 uses its own pdf creator engine as far as I know. The step I performed were:
    1 - In the save settings I told word to embed fonts (sorry for the language, I have the Italian client)
    2 - Export from Word -> Save As -> .pdf adding also the table of contents/index
    N.B. I cannot use PDF/A, and in any case it doesn't embed the font
    A working solution is to use Acrobat XI to convert it or print with Adobe PDF printer, results:
    The problems are 2:
    1 - It doesn't create any bookmark and doesn't create links from the table of images to the linked images
    2 - Images, also with the preset "High Quality Printing" customized using "No compression", are really ugly and if you zoom a bit more than 100% they totally be s**t. It wasn't that way with PDF created by word.
    In the end, or I find they way to open the pdf created by word and embedd the missing font, or I find a way to make Acrobat XI creating bookmarks from the word file.
    Suggestion?

    Problems converting PDF to MS Word document.  I successfully converted 4 files and now subsequent files generate a "conversion failure" error when attempting to convert the file.  I have a large manuscript and I separated each chapter to assist with the conversion; like I said, first 4 parts no problem, then conversion failure.  I attempted to convert the entire document and same result.  I specifically purchased the export to Word feature.  Please assist.  I initially had to export the Word Perfect document into PDF and attempting to go from PDF to MS Word.

    Hi sdr2014,
    I'm sorry to hear your conversion process has stalled. It sounds as though the problem isn't specific to one file, as you've been unable to convert anything since the first four chapters converted successfully.
    So, let's try this:
    If you're converting via the ExportPDF website, please log out, clear the browser cache, and then log back in. If you're using Reader, please choose Help > Check for Updates to make sure that you have the most current version installed.
    Please let us know how it goes.

  • Adobe acrobat java sdk is available? if yes then its  possible to convert pdf to word

    adobe acrobat java sdk is available ?  if yes then its  possible to convert pdf to word(doc)

    There is little interest in automating Acrobat with Java, since it cannot be run on a server. On a client workstation, OLE is available, and perhaps Java can use that.
    (JavaScript is of course another story).
