Set Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. When I want to save the file in WORD, EXCEL or esporta file into ... immediately throws an error "save as failed to process this document no file was created".
What's the problem?
Any help in finding a solution is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Installed AcrobatXI PRO 11.0.09 on seven computers and laptops. Two of them gives an error when you try to save a document in WORD, EXCEL, Power Point, or when exporting to... error: Save failed to process this document. No File was created.
But all good saves in the format of TXT and jpg.
I have uninstalled and restored and re-installed and updated and registry cleaned and removed using the special utility Cleaner Tool for Acrobat, but nothing helps.
On one notebook with Windows 8.1 and Microsoft office 2013, on another laptop with Windows 7 and Microsoft office 2010, the same problem, although there are computers with Windows 7 and Microsoft office 2010 and everything works.
Tell me where to find the problem and how to solve it.
Thank you.

I am unable to convert a pdf file to word as I get the error message indicates it contains XFA forms

I am unable to convert a pdf file to word as I get the error message that pdf files containing XFA forms cannot be saved to the specified format.

Hi curtlea,
XFA forms are not regular PDF's but XML files in a PDF shell.
To create a word file from those files, you first have to flatten the XFA forms by printing as PDF with the Adobe PDF Printer.
Then you can save using ExportPDF the created static PDF as Word document.

"Save As failed to process this document. No file was created." Error trying to convert pdf to word document

Hi - I have a pdf created from indesign as a print quality pdf. The client now wanted to text in an editable format so they can reuse the content for a new years event.
I get an error message "Save As failed to process this document. No file was created."
Can anyone help out here? There are a lot of graphics in it and it is horizontal - could any of this be an issue?
Thanks
Nikola

Totally agree. Saving the pdf as a word file gives it the look of a word file, until corrections have to be made. The text flow will be, so to say, "strange". Reusing that file in Indesign ...
We always save as rtf, send that one back and relink it afterwards (as long as the styles stay the same, only smaller corrections have to be made.

Save as failed to process this document. No file was created.

I've had Adobe Acrobat XI installed on my computer since November of 2013 and had never had any problems with the 'Save As' function - I could save all kinds of PDFs to Word, Excel, Power Point -- whichever format I needed -- until yesterday. Now I am suddenly getting "Save as failed to process this document. No file was created."
I also have the exact same set up (Windows 8, 64, Adobe Acrobat XI) on my laptop and have no issues w/ the "Save As" feature. To make sure that it is just my desktop's Acrobat that is acting strange, I took the exact same document and was NOT ABLE to "Save As" on desktop -- and was, with no issues, able to "Save As" the exact same document to Word on my laptop.
The ability to "Save As" is a feature that I use often -- so, please, tell me how I can get that feature back. I've already tried the "Repair" feature in Acrobat - no luck.

Hi Bill,
Yes - I did the upgrade - which I was avoiding because last time I upgraded, the font and icons within Adobe Acrobat became microscopic -- so I did a 'system restore' and turned off my updates. I have old eyes & work with Adobe Acrobat all day -- so the tiny print is horrible.
So, now I can either NOT be able to see the fonts and have the ability to convert to Word/Excel, etc OR, I can revert and actually SEE the fonts - but not be able to convert the documents I need to convert. This sucks.
Adobe Acrobat XI upgrade (11.0.06 and .07) has really been a disappointment. I've done all the little tricks about trying to fix the size of the fonts - but, just like most of what I've read, I can either have HUGE fonts/menus, etc or make it 'readable' by changing the registry - but then end up w/ horrible little icons.
It's really sad to have to choose one or the other - I'm very disappointed in Adobe.
Thanks for your input!!

Converting a PDF file to Word format issue

I am using Adobe Reader XI 11.0.09 with the paid side bar to convert the pdf file to an editable Word 2007 format. The problem is that the formatting after conversion is really bad and getting worse, example of the most recient: "I n a cont ingent circumstance, an effect results from clearly definable causes, t hough t he effect could be different, given an entirel y possible and different interrelation of causes. In short, a contingent event or thi ng is a nonnecessa ry event or thi ng tha t either might not exist or could be other than it is."
The conversion in the past was never this bad and I was hoping it was some setting but I have not found a way to tweak the settings in the converter. I have converted many pdf files and had no problems with the outcome of the conversion until recently.
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Paul,
Welcome!
I'd like to help!
What type of document was it prior to becoming a PDF? Is it a scanned document? Perhaps a secure document?
Please provide more detail so we can troubleshoot together.
Also - here is a 'getting started' guide that may assist.
Looking forward to hearing back from you!
Kind regards, Stacy

Adobe Acrobat DC - Save As failed to process this document. No file was created

When exporting a pdf to any of the file formats in the Export Menu (Microsoft Word, Spreadsheet, Microsoft PowerPoint, etc) except for the Image format, the error mentioned in this title comes up and no file is created.
This has happened to me since the XI version and was hoping that with the update to DC this issue would have been solved by now, since there is no posted solution anywhere at all.
I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling everything, even tried creating PDF/X compatible files and executing various Preflight tasks as well. This happens with every file, no exception, from the most basic one-liners with text only to every other document I have attempted to export.
Please help, apparently the only remaining alternative would be to completely format the hard drive an reinstall everything from scratch (not even from a Time-Machine or comparable backup).
Thanks in advance.
Luis Herrero.

Hi Rave,
Thank you for your message.
I tried what you suggested and did not work either.
It still is throwing the same error.
Any other ideas?

Hi Derek,
What is the 'exact' error message that you see on the screen?
and does this issue occurs with a specific pdf or with all the pdf files?
Which operating system are you using?

Why is the text garbled when I convert a pdf file to microsoft word ?

Why is the text garbled when I convert a pdf file to microsoft word ?

Hi amedah,
Could you please try converting any other PDF file with same fonts and then check.
It might also happen due to use of some poor fonts which result in garbled text.
Is the PDF scanned?
Let me know.

Why does Acrobat Pdf converter file slow down my 2003, Windows Word Program. I only experience this problem when i convert a pdf file to a doc file.

Why does Acrobat Pdf converter file slow down my 2003, Windows Word Program. I only experience this problem when i convert a pdf file to a doc file.

Hi Bill -- thanks for your reply!
When I check the Document Properties on Acrobat I can see that the fonts used in the document (Cambria, Times and Windings) are listed as "Embedded Subset" in the Fonts panel. The machine it was created on did use an earlier version of OS X and an old version of Word, but it seems to have the proper fonts...

Why do I get prompted to subscribe online when I attempt to convert a PDF file to word

Why do i get prompted to subscribe online when I attempt to convert a PDF file to word? It's Adobe Pro XI.

Open pdf document, click tools, click content editing, click export file to (choose word). Or open pdf document and choose save as. Either way it prompts to subscribe.
