Save as Microsoft Word doc not using initial OCR process

I used Acrobat X's OCR feature wich seems to work quite well... It does all the normal stuff like giving you the option to fix up and suspect conversion issues. After correcting any suspects I then went to save the file as a document that I could then forward to sombody to edit... Say Microsoft Word.
When I went File->Save->Microsft Word->Word Document and selected the location, I could see in the little status bar down the bottom that Acrobat X went through what looked like another OCR process. And sure enough when I opened up the file the Word document contained all the un-fixed suspects in it.
Can anybody else confirm this behaviour, tell me if I am missing something or tell me a possible work around?

Please note that this is a known limitation with the current version of Acrobat (Acrobat X). We might fix this issue in our future releases.

Printing a document from firefox web page or Microsoft Word doc ument used to work just fine. All of a sudden I was unable to print a Word document. I can still print a web page. Any suggestions?

I have a document from Microsoft Word that will not print. It's as if the printer is not connected when I attempt with the Word document. I have gone in and deleted any pending documents in Microsoft Word. I have restarted computer, as well as the printer. The printer does not seem to be connecting or responding to the Word program (cannot find spooler) Any suggestions?

I have a problem similar to those posted here, with one difference. With my printers newly installed, regardless of which one is selected as the default, when I try to print from Adobe Reader I receive the error message we're talking about : "Before you can perform a print related task...."
Here's the fun part.
If I click OK on the message, ALL MY PRINTERS GET DELETED and, I get the windows message that "Spooler subsystem app has encountered a problem and needs to close"! If instead of clicking OK I switch to Task Manager and end Adobe, I'm fine and can print from other programs.
I can "reset" the problem by deleting the files in C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Printers and C:\Windows\System32\Spool\Drivers\w32x86, restarting the machine, and deleting then reinstalling the printers (which show up again after the restart).
BUT, if I try to print from Adobe Reader again, I get the same cycle of problems.
I am running Windows Vista and Adobe Reader 8.1

Microsoft Word Doc not opening - EPS Import message

Suddenly whenever I try to open a word doc I get the following message: There is not enough memory or disk space to run the converter "EPS Import". What in the world does this mean?? There is still 78 of 148 GB of memory available so clearly not a disk memory space issue. Help! I need to get my documents open!!
Thanks.

Could be many things, but it's best to start with these two steps, which may fix it also...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Tiger Mac OS X Install disc , then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, *you must select your language first.)*
*Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Click the disclosure triangle to the left of the hard drive icon to display the names of your hard disk volumes and partitions.
5. Select your Mac OS X volume.
6. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
Then Safe Boot , (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it finishes.

I updated to Firefox 4, and now it won't open Word documents. It doesn't even give me an option to open or save. When I looked under Tools, Applications - Microsoft Word was not in the Content list. What can I do to restore automatic opening of Word?

Word opens fine in other browsers.
The web link, ending in doc, appears at the bottom of the page - but Firefox just stays on the original page.

Ok, when you go to the Content menu, you see a list of files which are set to open with a particular program by default.
To change the application, click the one which is assigned to it already and then from the dropdown menu which appears, click the bottom option called "Use Other".
This will open a menu where you'll see another set of apps you can use to open the file with. If Microsoft Word is not in the list, click the "Browse" button and then navigate to the folder containing Word.exe. I don't have it on my system, but I believe you'll find it in C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Word

Printing a microsoft word doc using Java Print API

Hi,
I have to print a microsoft word doc.I am using Java Print API, but the code is printing only Hashcodes instead of the actual document.
Here is the code. Please let me know whats wrong in it.
CODE:::
public String print() throws Exception {

Microsoft word is not responding. I get this message every time I try to close a Word document or do some other functions such as change margins or print. I just get the twirling ball. I'm using OSX on a imac. What do to?

Bummer! The only way I have ever been able to get rid of the dreaded twirling ball was to reboot....with the exception of one time only, when it actually was some super techie issue that was only resolved when they looked at it and did their magic.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help!

Can Java be used to parse Microsoft Word(.doc) files?

Hi guys ,
I want to know whether Java can be used to parse Microsoft Word(.doc) files for searching a string or for checking for grammatical errors, etc
Thanks in advance.
Avichal

Hey man, anything and every thing can be done these days.
About ur question doc is like all other normal text files with some extra features and extra character supports and other stuffs.
If u neglect those parts and if u consider it to be a normal text file then its a much simpler job.
Here is a code that searches for the key word in all the doc files, txt files, pdf files and html files
in the mentioned folder and sub folders. Any way its a servlet u can change it to a normal program.
It first check the file to know whether they are doc, pdf, html or txt files if yes then it will read the file and
store the contents in the vector and parse the vector for the search string and display the result.
Along with the result the below code will also display the time taken and the number of search string found in the document

My imac is running mountain lion and last night i downloaded maverick. in midst of installing it it said a powerPC app microsoft word would not work so i canceled the install for the time being. my questions is if i choose to finish installing maverick

my imac is running mountain lion and last night i downloaded maverick. in midst of installing it, it said a powerPC app microsoft word would not work so i canceled the install for the time being. my questions is if i choose to finish installing maverick does that mean i will nevver be able to access word documents stored on my desktop? or do the word docs automatically convert to pages or what? i am so confused. would i be better off just sticking with mountain lion and send the maverick install to the trash? hoping someone will be able to answer my question though i am afraid the response is likely to be just stick with mountain lion so you can keep using word. i had been looking forward to maverick but it seems pretty drastic to not have access to microsoft word anymore by switching to maverick. hope someone has an answer so i can have the best of both worlds so to speak!

thanks for your response Csound1 on the peninsula ... if i go ahead and install maverick and then download LibreOffice or OpenOffice will i then be able to access old microsoft word saved documents on my deskstop through those two free alternatives? i am not that knowledgeable about these things so i am not sure if you are saying i will just be able to use libreoffice or openoffice for creating new documents or whether i can access the saved microsoft docs? are they transferred to OO or LO or what and if editing of the old word docs is needed can i do that through the OO and LO programs or apps (see i am not even sure if i am using the correct vocabulary!) hope you can answer this as quick as the first question, so i can decide to stick with mountain lion and trash the maverick install or proceed with maverick install and hoppe that my microsoft word docs are still accessible through OO or LO or adding to myquestion will pages on maverick be able to open the old word documents? thanks again!

My Microsoft Word is not opening - error 1712

my Microsoft Word is not opening - error 1712 - Mac OSX version 10.6.8 - processor 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo - Memory 2 GB667 MHzDDR2 SDRAM
my memory is been nearly used up, I have withdrawn 2 GB of archives so that I can continue using my machine, as I am down in Brasil and yet could not find more memory, so I have asked a friend of mine who lives in London to buy me 5 GB more. But as I have done that, once I tried to open an archive, it didn't do so, & I got the 1712 message - I thought of re-iniciating the PC, but I just have a big work document down at the dock, which I cannot loose. I am afraid that if I re-start the Pc I wil loose the document. So I need a way to get the document out of the dock to a file, before I re-start my machine.

Following thread could help you resolve the issue.
Word is not opening error -1712 ,can anyone help please

Microsoft Word Has Not Been Installed for the Current User

Hi, everybody
I'm just starting our attempt to put together ZfD app packages for MS Office 2007. I've tried 2 different route with poor results for each. I'm looking for guidance and suggestions and, hey really, the simple final solution. :)
Objectives: Each app package will install locally one of the Office apps (e.g., Word) if it is not installed and then launch it, otherwise it will launch it. It gets installed locally to the C: drive using all the MS default choices, but runs from the desktop ZEN/NAL shortcut. All desktops are XP, not Vista or W7.
Routes tried and failed...
1) Simple app, uses distribution and run scripts to figure out if already installed, then installs using network shared drive and config.xml file for just the one app. The result ought to work -- no particular error in the package, those are fixed -- but what happens is something different each time with the MS setup.exe, and it never does complete without its own error (various and different each time). So, this appears to be completely unreliable because launching MS's setup.exe from a simple app is unpredictable and incomplete.
2) Snapshot of a successful setup.exe and config.xml install. This ALMOST works... well it does in fact work but the snapshotted app gives an error once it finishes launching -- "Microsoft Word Has Not Been Installed for the Current User" -- and exits. From the research I've done on this message, the MS program sees the "wrong" Windows profile on the destination environment, compared to that in the snapshot, and figures it's now been installed from a bootleg copy of Office 2007.
At this stage all I can think of is expletives. We've paid for everything, I've followed all the usual and customary steps, played by the rules, been polite (and also used the necessary computer swear words), and now I just want to insult everyone in Microsoft's marketing department for ruining everyone's life yet again. Can't we just do this, is it too much to ask!?!
Please help me. What is really going to work for distributing and maintaining Office 2007 apps using our ZfD environment? ALL USEFUL SUGGESTIONS WELCOME. Thank you. Bless you.

Be strong as a ship and wise as a whale

These questions are really best in the Microsoft Office Forums.
These are MS Office Questions not ZEN Questions.
Novell did not design Microsoft's Office Install.
I have nothing against snapshots, but it does not work great with the Office
installs, which you yourself know since you are posting here with problems
based on that.
And your other method you are trying with the break out is not working well.
We also know that from experience.
We can tell you that the way most people install it and the way most people
succeed doing it, is by doing it the way recommended and designed by
Microsoft.
ZEN does that just fine.

Unable to convert Microsoft Word doc. to PDF in Words (there is no response)

Unable to convert Microsoft Word doc to PDF in Words (Does not respond) or Create PDF from a Word doc. in Adobe Acrobat X Standard 10.1.1 with all updates installed. I receive apop-up saying "Missing PDF Maker Files: Dou you want to run the installer in Repair Mode" I have done this several times. I have un-installrd and re installed the program twice. Still does not work. I'm running Windows 7 Home version and Microsoft Office XP 2002. This is a brabd new Acrobat program right out of the box. Suggestions Please.

In WORD 2002, I believe you can only print to the Adobe PDF printer. I think that WORD 2003 is the first compatible with AA X. Check out http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/333/333504.html.

Word Docs not considered a "Kind" is "Documents"

When using the finders spotlight I can add a filter to search for "Kind" is "Document" why doesn't Word doc files show up but can only be found if I filter on "Other". Is there a way to change this so that Word Docs are considered Kind=Documents?

I almost NEVER use Word, but I do have Office 2004 for Mac (courtesy of my brother who works for M$ and gave me a copy), and I do have one document from last summer, and in mdls it shows
kMDItemContentTypeTree = (
"com.microsoft.word.doc",
"public.data",
"public.item",
"public.composite-content",
"public.content"
I also have a buncha doc files emailed to me from Windows using friends and relatives, and they show exactly the same thing, Finder shows them in the Kind column as "Microsoft Word Documents"--I also have a big batch of older Word files, whose Kind in Finder is shown as "Word 97 Format (doc)" and whose TypeTree is identical to the newer Word files. The only MS cruft that doesn't show up is thingies from Entourage.
I sure don't remember installing anything different--the only importer I have is
/Library/Spotlight/Microsoft Office.mdimporter
which is version 12.0.2 from 9/27/07. I think that was a default install by Apple, since all the importers date from about the same time, except the iWeb one, which was created a few months earlier than the others.

Convert Microsoft Word docs to Pages?

I love Pages and want to convert a bunch of Microsoft Word docs into Pages documents. The action would open the .doc file in Pages, then save it as a Pages document with the same title.
Is there anything that would let me do this? Thanks.

I've tried that myself, to no avail.
Here's what I've tried - if anyone can twiddle with this to make it actually work, I too would be grateful!
1 find finder items
2 get specified finder items
3 copy finder items (to save originals)
4 launch app (pages)
but then there's no action for creating a new file or saving-as or anything...
thanks and peace-

"A supported version of Microsoft Word does not exist. Please install Microsoft Word 2000 or newer."

I am a new RoboHelp user und I want to import content written with Word 2013 into RoboHelp.
I'm using RH HTML 9.0.2 and MS Word 2013 (Office 2013) on a Windows 7 professional computer.
When I try to import a Word-Document (I downloaded and used the example document from Peter Grainge and also tried other Word-documents) I get the following message:
"A supported version of Microsoft Word does not exist. Please install Microsoft Word 2000 or newer."
What can I do?

The error message is wrong as regards the version you need to install. It should state that you need a compatible version and the latest is Office 2010. Even Rh10 does not support Office 2013.
There is a workaround when generating printed documentation but not when importing. You need to install Word 2010 which can co-exist with Word 2013 if you want to retain that for other purposes. Before using Rh to import, run Word 2010 first.
To generate printed documentation using Word 2013, right click Properties in the layout, it works from there.
