Problems when converting from pdf to word

I am a translator and I get most of my work in pdf files. So I convert the pdfs into words to be able to change the text and edit. However, when dcuments are converted from pdf to word I have found they become very unstable and difficult to work with to the point I usually end up not using the coverted file. Is there any place I can go for training about what to do with those documents? Can anyone relate to this problem?
thanks

Hi patryba,
You can access ExportPDF here: Adobe Acrobat.com.
Please let us know how it goes!

    Hi hamsa142,
    Is this problem specific to one file, or does it happen with any file that you convert to PDF? How was the PDF created (using what application)?

  • How do I convert from pdf to word? I see an option to do so, however, when I click on it, Ia box opens...

    when I try to convert from pdf to word, a box opens and suggests I am to click on (select) the file I want to convert. It sounds all well but it does not work. I really really just want my files back in word, all of them, no matter, because after having to reinstall windows 7 (done by techs) and me having to re-download all my HP drivers, and tools, and other software, which I imagine included adobe reader, now I see some pdf files won't open. It says, "access denied" and boy that really makes me wantt o scream. I am the ONLY user, it is my notebook, I am the administrator so I can't figure out why some files open and some don't. I can't ascertain any difference.
    I would be grateful for any help. This has become just too exhausting. After reinstalling sooooooooo much, then to have to go through this with what is a free application? I say I think not.
    This should NEVER happen with any free application and boy there is NO help to be found. They blow you off the phone fast telling you it's a free application. Then why are you putting in this kind of  stuff that it won't open? This is NOT a shared notebook, it's mine. I am the only user, personal use.
    HP probook, if anyone needs that info.
    Please, will someone help?
    I would be so grateful.
    thanks,
    Gina

    Gee, Pat, this is a  real big help.
    Nobody could possibly think anyone would ask for help without first trying to fix the issue oneself. Or maybe you do. I have opened the file and looked under security. I have changed it to owner-notebook (which is what the techs called me) and clicked accept but geepers it didn't work.
    Maybe someone else has an idea.

    The above should be a link. At least I copied and pasted the link. I did what was stated in there. It isn't like brain surgery. But it is not working. I ended up being able to open some pdf files after transferring them from one partition category to another. I wish it was that easy as you seem to think.
    Thanks for the help. Have a great year.

  • Convert from pdf to word?

    i cant convert from pdf to word - when i sign in it greys out the conversion setting so i cant use it - what am i missing?

    I have paid upfront for adobe acrobat pro x1 and I have wasted a ton of time trying to convert a simple file from pdf to word (it worked a wk ago so what has changed?). All I see is a bunch of people having problems and no real solutions, and I am coming up to 24hrs!!
    I wonder if customer service from adobe (does this exist?) will jump in any time soon to help resolve?

  • How do I maintain column formatting when converting from PDF to Excel?

    How do I maintain column formatting when converting from PDF to Excel? All info is no longer on the lines or in the columns they started out being in? Any help would be appreciated.

    Sara,
    Perhaps I am expecting too much from Adobe ExportPDF. The reason I subscribed to this service, for which I pay a yearly fee, was that I need a way to  convert scanned and digital documents to Word &/or Excel. I read the link you included but to be candid the more I tried to understand what was written the more confused I got. The process should not be this difficult. Currently I am using a NEAT scanner to create PDF documents of whatever I scan. After I changed the OCR setting on Adobe ExportPDF the output was much better but not to the point it was usable as it was. Information that appears to be lines and columns are sometimes not recognizing two columns and just putting them together in one. Obviously not usable. The other thing it does is bunch numbers that appear in a column that are just a bunch of numbers that I have no way of fixing. 
    Please let me speak to someone who can help me. Right now I not getting anything of value in my paid subscription.

  • How do I convert from PDF to Word step by step instructions needed..am practically computer illiterate

    How do I convert from PDF to Word step by step instructions needed..am practically computer illiterate@

    Ok, fine. That isn't Acrobat, and that's why our instructions weren't much use. (But it's worth saying "I didn't have that option" rather than "it's not converting", we could end up wasting a lot of your time with the wrong stuff!)
    Anyway, the free Adobe Reader can't do this conversion without a subscription called either ExportPDF or PDF Pack. You may have had one in the past. Are you still paying for one?
