Will adobe export PDF convert files to word

Was wondering if I purchase the Adobe Export PDF, if it really converts files to word.
If files were scanned - will they still convert?

Exporting simple tables in pdf to Excel or word and maintain correct text/column flow.

Even with a black and white, clear scan at high settings, my exports to Word/Excel result are poor. Text is recognized but not in the correct sequence for editing. I find myself using the column select (Alt key) feature and exporting columns one at a time! When exporting to Excel, the contents of one cell in the pdf table ends up in 20 cells in Excel among many other misalignments. When exporting to word, it's a mess of tabs/graphics/paragraph returns...etc. I find myself selecting the text in 25 or so graphic text boxes!
Appears that many people have the same experience but I haven't seen a solution as advertised by Adobe. It appears so easy on video.
Can anyone recommend a step-by-step proven method (Win 7, Acrobat X, Office 2007, InDesign CS5.5)?
Txs!

I am not sure about what video, but my guess is that was a PDF produced from Excel or WORD with PDFMaker. In such a case, it would have tags and all that would retain all of the information you need. When you are working with a scanned document, you have no such tag info that provides layout info (like cell locations and such). There are some 3rd party products that are said to do a better job in such cases, but often cost as much as Acrobat and only do the conversion. If you can point out the video, then maybe we can discuss aspects of what you are doing compared to the video.

Exporting PDF's from Microsoft Word

I'm having trouble creating PDF's from Word (PC). If I click file and selct PDF as my printer, the image comes out with several things missing. If I click the Adobe Icon and try to print it locks up and says there is a problem with Adobe. Not sure if it just needs updated or what's wrong with it.

Be sure AA8 is updated to the latest version. The fact that you have it working on Win7-64 bit is only the second time I have heard of any success with AA8 and this system. That may be the issue that the compatibility is just not there. You might try printing to file with another PS print driver (this step would be a better check) and open the file in Distiller to check for proper operation. If that works, then try the Adobe PDF printer with a print to file also. Do you get different results in any of these tests?
Adobe will only give you one answer for your problem and that is AA8 is not certified for Win7-64 bit and you should upgrade to AAXI. This latter may be a good idea anyway, depending on your funds.

First place to start with is the designer. Export from there and see if you get the same issue. If you do, create a forum post in the Report Design forum:
SAP Crystal Reports
Also, make sure you have SP 6 for CR 10:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100005985482008E/cr10win_en_sp6.zip

If none of the above helps, you will have to try this with CR 2008 (12.x) as CR 10 has been out of support for a number of years and no fixes will be released. If you want, you can share a report with saved data with me and I can do the export using CR 2008. You will then have to try to duplicate the issue in Adobe. Alternatively, you can download CR 2008 eval copy from here;

and try the export your self.

Saving converted Export PDF files

I use the Export PDF function, convert to Word Doc, and a dialogue appears asking me to download the conversion as it is successful. When I try to save the document to my Desktop, it won't. There is a drop-down box next to the Save button that says 'Save to Online Account' - I have no idea what this means - where is my converted file and how do I access it?

Hi DJ,
I'd like to assist!
Are you using a MAC or PC?
You can always access your files by going to files.acrobat.com and logging in using your Adobe ID and password. You should be able to download them from there.
Looking forward to hearing back from you!
Kind regards, Stacy

InDesign CS5 exports PDFs where EPS elements have low resolution

I am rather new to InDesign CS5. I am currently working on a magazine, where I use graphics in TIFF and EPS. The exported PDF shows graphics in correct quality (300 dpi - TIFF) and graphics with poor resolution -> EPS. How is that even possible? The problem disappears when I use .AI, but it should work with EPS to, shouldn't it?
I figured that it might have something to do with the Transparency Flattener Presets, am I right? My presets are set to "low resolution" and it is not possible to set them to "hight resolution", as InDesign refuses to remember those settings.
Please help!

Well, I was just trying to figure out why it's happening and thought that it might have something to do with the transparency flattening.
My colleagues, who also work with InDesign (althought with older versions), always use EPS and they never have problems. But your advice is not to use EPS format, am I right?

Exporting PDF to Word with Acrobat 8 - Does this work?

Has anyone had any success with a decent export-to-Word using Acrobat 8 (from CS3)?
Acrobat 7 is worthless for this. I suspect the woeful results have much to do with how the PDF was made. If it came from InDesign or Illustrator, and has layers, that will no doubt flummox wonky old Word.
Or, is it the wonky "export to Word" function that's wonky? I see there is also "Export to RTF" which is much the same file format as .doc. You get exactly the same crazy results.
Here at my job, they have determined the best way to get a decent Word doc out of what we're publishing is to export each individual text box from InDesign as "RTF". Then open word and wrangle all the bits.
This is time consuming and senseless - certainly the technology exists to convert PDFs to Word cleanly and perfectly.
Or ... is Adobe just telling us, by quietly setting us up to fail, that we shouldn't be using Word at all? So they're not going to bother to make this work?
Sadly, at my gig, we need to do this. Our clients are dinosaurs, and the average T-Rex is deathly afraid of Acrobat Reader and PDFs.

< Frankly, I don't really give a lot of thought to employers who refuse PDFs for graphic design positions. It's like asking me to retouch a photo using MacPaint.>
A resume is a document, not a design sample. A lot of employers do not want "designed" resumes at all. They want simple searchable text resumes. Even using special formatting features in Word can mess up their processes. HR departments could care less how pretty it is, all they want is data. You'll need to impress the design manager at the interview, after HR has passed it on. Even the hiring manager may find a highly designed resume to be annoying and difficult to read.
Of course if that's not where you want to work, that's up to you, but you might be turning down excellent design positions by insisting they accept things your way instead of doing things their way! ;-)

PDF file graphics are poor - AI to Word to Acrobat

I've been learning to use AI to build the simple, mostly vector, grapics I want available to Word and other end points like web. Sizing and then exporting AI files to PNG and then using those directly in web apps works fine.
The story isn't so good for grapics put into Word.
After trying a number of options, taking the graphic to a TIFF worked best for viewing in Word. But when converted to a PDF the images (lines, text) errodes noticably. I'm assuming that's because I'm having Acrobat convert a raster image. I'm also assuming that manipulating the image (e.g. line width, font size, etc.) will not improve things although, if I'm wrong, I'd like to hear back.
I decided that getting the vector objects into EMF files would help but that actually produced poor results when viewed in Word.
It may be the method I'm using so if there's some wisdom about AI to Word to Acrobat I'd appreciate hearing it.
Thanks
Tom

I do not use WORD, but another word processor that allows me to see the format of the graphics as bitmaps or metafiles. The imported vector files are metafiles (this is a form of vector file used in Windows. Imported bitmap files are kept as bitmap files. There are some conversions that depend primarily on the compatibility of the graphic vector form and the windows metafile format. The results are generally excellent for me. What you could do is import in general formats like eps (include a bitmap if you want to see it in word and print to PDF to see the actual vector form), an emf file saved from AI (it should be retained as a vector form), and a bitmap, then also include clipboard versions of the same files from the original vector and bitmap files. You can judge for yourself. I am still interested in the comment from the other individual about not using the clipboard and why.
EPS is a vector graphic format developed by Adobe (as I recall, would have to look at my graphic book to be sure) along with PS files. It allows a bitmap preview file to be included -- what you see on screen in WORD. EMF files should be able to be loaded from the insert pictures menu in WORD (it is there in my WORD 2007 along with EPS and WMF files -- I do not there are any other formats that support vectors there). WMF is the old Windows MetaFile format and EMF is the Enhanced Windows MetaFile format. Actually, EMF and WMF files can include both vector and bitmap formats, similar in a sense to what Adobe can do I guess with PDF. The standard EMF is what is actually used in the clipboard. You can get more info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Metafile. A similar discussion of EPS file is at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encapsulated_PostScript. The main difference between the EMF and clipboard in WORD is that they are scaled differently when inserted. One problem with vector graphics in WORD 2007 and 2010 is that fonts of the text are not embedded. So someone without the fonts and looking at the WORD file would not see the proper text -- this is a MS issue introduced with their XML form of a DOC file. It is even messed up in their DOC compatibility format.
The AI file format is supposed to actually be a variation on the EPS file format from what I have read -- Apparently EPS is an outgrowth of AI?
In any case, the WORD file may not show the EPS file correctly. It appears that WORD 2007 does an attempt at displaying the result, but with errors (I have been looking at some line drawings and the WORD display shows line breaks. I printed the various forms of graphics in WORD to a PDF and the results for the EPS was not good. I think this may be a MS issue, but am not sure. Actually, the WORD converter to PDF even messed it up. That would suggest that at this point, EPS is not a good choice because of the way WORD handles things.
Don't know that my long winded description helps or not.
The EMF file can be inserted with the Insert>Picture menu. If you use the special paste, you can insert either WMF or WMF versions from the clipboard. Generally the results are the same. From my short experiment with EPS and WORD 2007, it looks like the result is a problem. However, that could have been the EPS save of my application, don't know. The best way to see what works for you is to do what I just did and that is create a vector graphic and save it as EMF and EPS. Then clipboard it into work and insert both the EMF and EPS in the picture menu. See what the result looks like and then also print to PDF and see what you get. Then draw your own conclusions rather than depending on someone like me who is just indicating results I have gotten.
Good luck.

I just purchased Export PDF, and when I use it, it opens them in WordPad (which I never use) instead of Word. Thus, the pictures are not there, and the fonts are changed. How do I get into Word?

How can I export this pdf into a readable word?

Instead of: Ob die Bearbeitung der Erkenntnisse, die zum Vernunftgeschäft gehören, etc…
Does anyone know how I could solve this issue?
Thank you very much in advance,
Pierre

Have you started with a scanned document and then trying to go to DOCX. If so, you may have OCR set on the document before the export and it may be that the OCR can not recognize the fonts. However, the recognition appears to be based on typical block characters and I might interpret them the same way. You can try to change the primary language to German in the OCR, but that will likely not do the job. I suspect what you need is something that recognized old-German as this document appears to be (if I got the language wrong, I apologize). I am not sure Acrobat is up to the task on the type style, but is comparing to standard block characters. Some of the dedicated OCR packages might be able to do a better job.

Inability to use eps graphics in Word 2007 and make a pdf

Hi there …
I work at a small "intellectual capital" company where virtually all of our documents (our products!) depend on embedding eps "pictures" into Word and pdf'ing the result. While this process works great in Word 2003, it fails miserably in Word 2007 - the "mechanics" work fine and a pdf is produced, but the rendering of the eps images are terrible. I spent some effort looking into this issue trying to find a solution and came up with the following (thanks in part to this post) ... if anyone has any more details, corrections, or solutions feel free to post!
It appears that, over the years, there have been three flavors of eps import filters for Word ... (for the curious the filter is found in Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Grphflt\EPSIMP32.FLT )
The simplest (and oldest) filter basically embeds the eps code unmodified into the Word doc and will display a raster preview of the image if one is included in the eps file. if the file is printed on a postscript printer or to Acrobat, the eps code is passed through (so it produces perfect pdfs, and the screen image in Word looks as good as the preview image embedded in the eps file). if the file is printed to a generic printer, no image appears (so it doesn't work for joe user).
The Word 2003-era filter pastes the eps code unmodified into the Word doc, then renders a (very poor) preview image (using an OEM'd eps converter). if a preview image is in the eps file it is ignored (which is bad). if the file is printed on a postscript printer or to Acrobat, the unmodified eps code is passed through (so it produces perfect pdfs, though the screen image in Word looks yucky). if the file is printed to a generic printer, the poorly rendered preview image is printed (so it works poorly but better than nothing for joe user - and probably gives joe user a bad impression of eps).
In what might be an attempt to improve things for joe user, the Word 2007 filter immediately interprets the eps code (using a slightly updated eps converter from the same OEM) and pastes the resulting rendered image into Word. It NO LONGER embeds the unmodified eps code in the Word doc. While the rendered image looks better than filter #2, it still leaves A LOT to be desired - in my brief testing, colors are VERY wrong and curves become choppy. if the file is printed on a postscript printer or to Acrobat, the poorly rendered image is used since the original eps code is gone (unacceptable for my purposes). if the file is printed to a generic printer, the poorly rendered image is printed (so it works better than Word 2003 for joe user).
So where does this leave anyone that wants to upgrade to Word 2007, use eps images, and make quality pdfs ??
Filters #1 & #2 were interchangeable in Word 2003. The true eps experts like #1 the best, and it is by far the simplest technically (76k of code vs 400+k), so they merrily swapped and used it with Word 2003. (Very) unfortunately filters #1 and #2 do not work with Word 2007 - if they did the problem would be nicely solved.
Find another graphics file format to work with? This is undesirable because the "beauty" of #1 & #2 above is the unmodified eps code gets fed to the pdf maker (which itself is native eps) - Word is just a transport (no "transcoding" loss in compression-speak). if there were an efficient way to convert eps to say wmf (microsoft's proprietary vector graphic format), and the images were able to survive two transcodes (from eps to wmf back to eps for pdf), it might be livable. But of course Adobe Illustrator cannot save as wmv (nor should it IMHO). Of note - there is another industry standard vector format - svg - which AI can save as but Word does not support.
Stay in Word 2003 doc format while using Word 2007 (don't use docx). Doesn't work. My testing shows a Word 2003 doc file with embedded eps created in Word 2003 (and pdf's correctly in Word 2003) does not pdf correctly in Word 2007.
Use a work-around. As suggested here, "Open the EPS in Illustrator. Select all, and Edit > Copy. In Word, Edit > Paste Special > Enhanced Metafile." This seems to work for small images such as logos, but not for larger graphical stuff (probably because of the internal transcoding to WMF).
Stay with Word 2003. This appears to be the only workable option for now IF you want to use Word and render eps pictures in pdf's with acceptable quality.
IMHO the best solution would be to have the very simple 76k filter #1 ported to Word 2007 (those who need the capability can swap the filter files) or (not as optimal but does not require swapping filter files) add the option in filter #3 to still embed the eps code. Microsoft is the right place to do it, or (politics aside), Adobe could and should do it (given some support from MSFT).
I am surprised this issue has not caused more rumblings from users - perhaps it has, the symptoms are just worded differently. Or maybe everyone is just staying with Word 2003 (which is what I have done until now). The problem is most companies are being forced to upgrade now, so I think this will become a bigger issue for Adobe / Microsoft going forward.
Thanks for listening. I look forward to your comments.
Andy

Microsoft has released a hot fix that supposedly addresses this issue, it is at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/977468
I downloaded the fix and tried it; it actually made the problem worse! Apparently they
are trying to fix their filter rather than bypassing it. What I am doing is
1. Making maps in AutoCaD Map and printing (plotting in autocad) them to a pdf file
2. Opening the pdf file in Acrobat and resaving it as eps
3. Importing the eps file into a Word 2007 document
4. Use Acrobat to convert the Word document to pdf
Before the hot fix when I did the process the resolution of the map in the final
pdf file was not as good as in the original made from AutoCad. Also the colors were
not correct. After installing the hotfix there are still these same problems but also now
any non horizontal text is not displaying correctly.
Be careful about trying this hotfix.
As others have noted, back in Word 2003 the above steps 1 - 4 worked very well and resulted
in a high quality pdf file with the map as good as in the original pdf.

Exporting PDF to Word document

We have purchased “Adobe Acrobat X Standard” version. This version provides options to export a PDF document into Microsoft Word.
I want to do this programmatically using Adobe\Acrobat SDK or which ever suitable available SDK.
It would be great if someone can help me find the right function to do so.

I am very new to Adobe SDK. It will be very helpful if you let me know the name or web address of SDK I need to download to find JSObject.
Thanks for the help in advance.
