Why can't I convert .odt and .doc files to .pdf?

why doesn't my reader say it can't convert .odt and .doc files to .pdf?

...or a subscription to PDF Pack?  See this document for supported file types: http://forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-1496
What exactly happens when you try to convert such a doc?

    is there a free version of Adobe to allow me to convert Excel and word files to PDF's

    Nothing free no.
    At best there is a subscription you can purchase for a relatively low monthly price ($7.50 per month) that can be accessed through Adobe Reader (which is free).

  • Why when I am converting a word doc into a PDF are some of the pages moving around. It appears to be

    Why when I am converting a 50 page word doc into a PDF using Acrobat XI Pro the pages are moving around.
    It appears to be happening in the places where the previous page is not a complete full page, just a half page.
    It is moving these pages up into the previous half page, but it is only moving them several lines into that page
    Which has totally distored my e-book.
    It is attaching all my pattern sheets at the very end of the file okay, etc.

    Also, to be more sure you get in the PDF what you are seeing in WORD, go to the print menu and select the Adobe PDF printer, then go back to editing. The is a feature of almost all word processors to reflow the document for best results with the attached printer. It is also one of the problems of using WORD forms that such form designers miss. If you don't like the reflow, many the Adobe PDF printer your default and always print to Acrobat. If you want it to go to a printer, then print from Acrobat to that printer and it should remain intact. The other way to avoid the reflow is to use a layout program like Publisher or InDesign.

  • Why can't I open pps and wmv files sent by email!

    Many friends send photos and/or files with pps and wmv designations. Windows continually rejects them with the message that it is unable to open them.
    How can I fix this?

    I don't know. What exactly happens? (Exactly - including all error messages in full please) What is your computer (e.g. Windows 7), browser, and email program?

  • Why can't I download .exe and .reg files?

    Hi! I hope you can help me in my computer problem. I have trouble downloading .exe and .reg files. I'm not sure but it must have been for some weeks now that I had this problem. When I download these files, the Downloads Window of Firefox will appear, but will show that the download is "cancelled." I click the retry button and it starts to download, but after the download completes, the file doesn't appear on the designated Download folder. I tried searching for it in the desktop it but it still doesn't show. What can I do to fix this problem? Thanks in advance for all the help! :)

    As indicated you can right click 'alarm clock 1' on http://www.pacdv.com/sounds/domestic_sounds.html to download it.
    I must admit that this is silly especially if you have already gone to the full link and listened to the file. In this case it will have already been downloaded but finding it is tedious - I suspect it is only in RAM - not one of Safari's good points!
    I hope this helps.

  • Why can't I edit the Word doc I converted from a PDF?

    Why can't I edit the Word doc I converted from a PDF?
    Help! That is why I bought this software!

    Hi linda007,
    If you can't edit the file once it's converted to Word, it could be that the PDF was created from a scanned page, and then image text wasn't converted to searchable text. ExportPDF should perform Optical Character Recognition by default, but it can be disabled in Reader. Do you know whether OCR was disabled when you converted the page? If it wasn't, make sure that the correct language was selected for OCR. This option appears at the bottom of the ExportPDF panel in Reader, and in the Document Language (for Text Recognition) pop-up menu that appears after you select your file to convert in the ExportPDF online service.
    If everything seems to have been set correctly, and you still can edit the text, please try triple-clicking to select the text in Word. Did that do the trick?
    Best,

    I'm converting a word doc to a pdf and have a color spin wheel - going on 10 min now. any clue as to why? or how i make it stop?

    Hit command tab and swtich to the Finder, under the Apple menu is Force Quit, do that to the program that is causing your "hang" and restart the program and what you were doing.
    If you didn't save your file beforehand, then your going to have to make it again.

  • Why can I not Convert a Microsoft Office Document to a PDF using the Context Menu?

    Why can I not Convert a Microsoft Office 2013 Document to a PDF using the options found in the Context Menu? (Ex: Convert to PDF, Combine Supported Files into PDF?)
    I updated to Acrobat XI PRO recently, but now i'm unable to combine or convert microsoft word docs to PDF.
    In Adobe Acrobat X I had this feature below, and it would combine Microsoft Office Documents all into a single PDF. Now I no longer have this issue in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. It seems like it was program named Adobe Elements that was running the conversion.

    Ajlan. That page is showing as not available. Would the fix apply to Adobe Acrobat X and XI?

  • Why can't I open my numbers docs after upgrade to 3.0?

    why can't I open my numbers docs after upgrade to 3.0?  I have downloaded Maverick.  I had the same problem with Pages at first.  Is there any way to get my spreadsheets back?  I'm nervous about upgrades anymore.

    If you recently updated to Mavericks and updated the Numbers to  3.0 then it is likely you are trying to open a Numbers 3.0 file with Numbers 2.3.
    Numbers 2.3                              Numbers 3.0
    Be sure you are careful about which version you are launching and using to open files.  If you want to be able to open a file in Numbers 2.3 then you should continue using Numbers 2.3 (which is located in the folder "/Applications/iWork '09")
    If you already opened a Numbers file in 3.0 and saved if but want to open in 2.3 you can export from Numbers 3.0 by using the menu item "File > Export To > Numbers '09..."

  • Hello, is there a way to redact a word or item from a pdf using adobe pro X the same way you can if you convert a word doc using pro X on a pc?

    hello, is there a way to redact a word or item from a pdf using adobe pro X the same way you can if you convert a word doc using pro X on a pc?

    If the document is not a scanned image or protected from editing then you should be able to edit it. I would have to guess you have a scan and when you converted to Word, you ran OCR (Optical Character Recognition) on it converting the scanned image to live text.
    This is the forum for the free Adobe Reader which can not edit or redact.

  • Why can´t I see contacts and calendar events from my iPhone in my mac pro if I already registered it in the cloud?

    Why can´t I see contacts and calendar events already registered in my iPhone, in my Mac Pro ?  I already actualize LION OSX   and selected these items in the adjustments menu of the icloud. I could do it just once, after I installed Lion OSX, but up to the moment it does not updates.

    Assuming you activated iCloud, try going to Settings>iCloud and make sure Calendars and Contacts are set to ON.

  • Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud.

    Remote location, 7kbs d'load speed, 10 days to d'load Lion, only software updates are through the App Store. Why can't we d'load and install outside the Cloud anymore? Some of us can't use the cloud and never will be able to.

    That is true - I apologize for not being specific - what I was mainly referring to is iLife applications. I have a notice on the App Store that says 3 apps need updates, I look at the apps and they are huge so since my connection is so slow I use my work connection and d'load the files from support to my Windows machine and carry them home, once d'loaded my MacAir states it cannot install, the update must come from the App Store.
    I do the same thing for large Leopard and Lion files and I can install them without error, it is just the App Store files that the system stops.
