Problems converting to word

I cannot get the PDF convertewr to convert a file to word

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you.  I must have missed your post.
Are you receiving an error message?  How are you accessing the ExportPDF service?  Are you connecting via Adobe Reader or the ExportPDF web interface (http://exportpdf.acrobat.com/signin.html)?

  • Problem converting word 2010 Document

    I am having a problem converting a Word 2010 document using Live
    Cycle Designer ES2. I get the following
    error msg:
    Word (version XP onwards) could not be found
    Word 2010 is installed.

    I have just run into this issue myself.  At first I thought it might be that LiveCycle is not yet fully compatible with Office 2010 but after doing some googling it seems there are plenty of folks out there successfully converting Word 2010 documents to PDF.
    As a temporary workaround, you could try a copy of an earlier version of Word should one be available to you.
    If I'm able to find a solution to the issue, I'll let you know promptly.

  • Problem converting graphics to hyperlinks in pdf's

    I'm having a problem converting grapics, words or phrases to hyperlinks in exported pdf's.  The only thing that converts is a complete URL even though the test for source and destination work perfectly.

    In Indesign if you want to generate a PDF you "export". You have two options: Print or Interactive. If you use Interactive it will include hyperlinks by default. If you choose Print you need to check it:

    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.

  • Link problem when converting MS Word to PDF with Acrobat Professional

    Hello all,
    I have the following problem:
    When I have a MS Word document with links to other files inside and I convert it to PDF the links are converted from relative paths to absolute paths.
    The problem is created by Acrobat as the links in the MS Word file are relative (I have checked this by moving the different docs to another directory and confirmed that the links still work after the move).
    How can I make the paths in the PDF relative again? I know there is a plugin from Evermap (and I can confirm this works) but I do not want to use this plugin (=read: spend another $190 dollars) as the license for the Acrobat Professional is expensive enough . Is there a way I can convert the paths within Adobe Acrobat easily? Or better: can I adjust the settings in Acrobat to a new standard when all converted documents contain relative paths?
    Backgroundinfo:
    - Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional
    - Windows XP (SP2)
    - MS Word 2002
    Thanks in advance!
    Bart

    Dear Steve,
    I have tried what u suggested: I put all the documents (word + linked documents) into the same folder on the local-drive (C). Then I recreated the links  in the word document to be sure they were matching. After that I converted the word document to an PDF and confirmed the links were still working in the PDF document.
    Then the biggest challenge: copying the pdf and linked documents to another drive&directory. As you can guess: Unfortunately the links did not work anymore.
    Any other suggestions?
    If I use the Evermap-tool (30 day-trial) I can look at the links and this is how it is 'coded' in the pdf.
    first link: ../../../../test/link_a.pdf
    second link: ../../../../test/link_b.pdf
    and yes this will work if you put the documents in the directory test in the root of the local-drive but not in a different subdirectory.
    Anyone ideas?
    Grtz,
    Bart

  • Abobe v8: Problems with converting from word 2003 to PDF

    I use one of those free conversion tools, since i am a student. My problem is that i have a word document with a unique page margin. When i convert from word 2003 to pdf everything gets converted except the page margin which is much bigger then it's supposed to be. Do anyone know how i can fix that?, any help are appriciated.
    Kindly Erik

    You cannot fix anything in Reader. If you have a problem with the tool
    used to create your pdf, please ask in their forum.

    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.

  • Problems retaining page size when converting MS WORD 2007 doc to PDF

    I am having a problem converting Word documents that are not standard page size to a PDF. When I do the conversion, the PDF is resized to 8.5 x 11, even though the original WORD doc was 5.5 x 8.5
    This happens even when I go into the Acrobat Preferences and change the default page size to 5.5 x 8.5.
    The worst of it is, it does not happen with everyone who uses a particular computer here. It happens to some, but not to others.
    Does anyone have any experience with this?
    Thanks.

    It's happening the same way on several different computers here.
    Everyone logs in with their own userid on each machine. We are all working with the same MS WORD documents. These documents are non-standard sizes -- 6 x 9, or 5.5 x 8.5.
    Everyone uses the same version of Acrobat Professional, and selects "Convert to PDF from file".
    For some people, the PDF is created from the Word doc, and the original page size is retained. This is what we want.
    However, for others, the PDF is created as 8.5 x 11, no matter what the original size of the document was. No amount of fiddling with the default page size, in either Acrobat or Word, changes this.
    It is driving me crazy, and I was hoping that at least one other person on the planet has come across this problem. Is this an Adobe or a Microsoft problem? Could it be a Windows registry setting?
    Advice is appreciated!

  • Problem Converting Word 2007 Document to PDF

    I am having trouble converting a Word 2007 document to a PDF document.  I have Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional.  I have tried to convert the document using the right-click drop down list as well as converting from within the Word document screen itself.  I get the same results -- no PDF document is converted (or opened in a PDF screen).
    When I do the convert from the drop down list or from within the Word document, it gets to the point where it asks me for the name of the new document.  I click save (on the Word document name) and it looks like it is converting, but then the Adobe Acrobat conversion window disappears and no PDF document opens.  I noticed that on the frequently used documents list (from the Windows start button), the new PDF document is listed, but when I click on it, Windows say it cannot find the associated file.  When I look through the list of documents in the folder, the new PDF file is not there either.
    I ran the repair program in Adobe Acrobat.  After it was done, I clicked the button not to restart until later.  When that window closed, I heard the windows "gong" sound with a message to reinstall acrobat.  I rebooted and the problem persists.
    I also have a Fujitsu Scansnap machine which scans documents to PDF files and that seems to still be working fine, so I know at least part of Acrobat is working fine.
    I check the list of disabled add ins in Office and nothing is disabled.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Open the document in WORD. Select the print menu in WORD (don't know what to call the stupid file icon MS now uses) and select the Adobe PDF printer. See if printing there works.
    If the print does work, then skip the next few comments. If it does not, then go back to the print menu and check the print-to-file button and print. You will be asked for a location and file name. Be sure to note where you put the file and change the extension to PS (like filename.ps). Then starte Distiller and open the PS file you created in Distiller (if you forget to change the extension to PS, then it will be a PRN file and just select that one). Check if the PDF is created this time. If not, you should get error messages from Distiller -- copy all of the error message back here for us to see.
    If the PDF creation in the last step worked, then open the task list (ctrl-alt-del -- select the task list) and look for AcroTray.exe. If it is not running, then it has probably been deleted from the startup. It is found in the Distiller folder of Acrobat for most versions, but may have moved for your version. In any case, restart it if needed.
    As for PDF Maker that you are apparently using, that is a different process. However, check the printing process first and see if you can get it working. If not, PDF Maker will likely not work either. With AA8 and before, PDF Maker was simply a preprocessor for the printer and the selection of a DOC file in Acrobat simply uses PDF Maker to create the PDF. So you have to back out to more basics in creation and be sure those are working before the more advanced technique you are trying to use has any hope.

  • Problem converting Word 2007 DOC to PDF 9

    Problem converting Word 2007 DOC to PDF 9
    I have a Word 2007 DOC (not docx) file with pictures and text which converted perfectly with Distiller 8. I installed CS4 Distiller 9, and now the same DOC file flows over onto several extra pages. I am using the default settings. Any idea what has changed. Thanks in advance.

    First, select the Adobe PDF printer in WORD. Then go through the document to check for the flow of the document. It should print the same as you see in the document after the printer has been selected.

  • Problems Converting word documents with the Adobe Printer and method ,printout (OutputFileName:=) in

    I would like to write a vb-procedure to convert a word document into pdf.
    I'm developing in "Visual Basic 2005 express edition" and tried the following code:
    code[
    Private Sub PrintDocument(sDocName As String,sNewDocName As String)
    'sDocname = "c:\tmp\test.doc"
    'sNewDocName = "c:\test\test.pdf)
    Dim m_wdApp As Word.Application = New Word.Application
    Dim m_wdDatei As Word.Document
    m_wdDatei = m_wdApp.Documents.Open(FileName:=sDocName)
    m_wdDatei.PrintOut(Background:=False,OutputFileName:=sNewDocName, _ ActivePrinterMacGX:="Adobe PDF")
    m_wdDatei.Close(False)
    m_wdDatei = Nothing
    m_wdApp.Quit()
    m_wdApp = Nothing
    End Sub
    ]End of code
    After running the printout line I can see a little window popping up, which shows the progress in the converting and after a little time I can find the expected file in the targetdirectory.
    The problem is that I can't open this file, I just get the message that the file is corrupt or not of the pdf-format.
    By scanning the web, I found several threads describing the same problem, but so far I found no solution. Maybe someone here can help me.
