WORD TO PDF CONVERTION

Hi
I am from india,unable to convert a word file into pdf kindly guide me to do

Hi Chennairci,
We would like to assist! First in order to convert a Word doc to PDF you would need a full verson of Adobe Acrobat http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobatpro.html?promoid=KATIU. OR you can utilize our CreatePDF www.createPDF.acrobat.com online service. It cannot be accomplished with our free Acrobat reader.
Within those links and these forums you can find a wealth of information.
Thank you!

  • Office files like Word-to-PDF converter ribbon on Mac side?

    Is there a ribbon feature available on the Mac side for converting Office files like Word-to-PDF?

    I have Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and a MacBook Air running Mavericks.
    Thanks!

    Hi pomonav ,
    PDFMaker is not available for Mac OS. However, you can still create PDFs by using the File > Print command. In the Print dialog box, choose Save As Adobe PDF from the PDF menu.
    I hope that helps.

  • Word to PDF conversion does not retain left margin (for thesis submission to a university)

    Hi everyone,
    I've searched through the more recent margin issues posts and haven't found anything that exactly matches my problem.  I'm currently trying to convert my thesis from Word to a PDF (I'm using Word 2003 in Windows XP and Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional) as required by my university and the left side margin is changed from 1.5 inches to 1.25 inches during the conversion process.  Since this is for submission to a university, the margin has to be exactly 1.5 inches.  I've already tried to change the paper and page layout settings in case was an issue related to scaling (if only at this point) and I've reconverted the file in case it was a fluke (obviously it wasn't since I found my way here).  I also tried to just shift the margin in Word over an additional 0.25 inches to see if that would put it at 1.5 instead of 1.25 in Acrobat, but somehow it was still at 1.25.  It doesn't seem to matter what the margin is set at in Word, it ends up at 1.25 in Acrobat.
    I would very much appreciate any input- it would be nice if now that I've finished all the work on my thesis I could actually get it submitted properly so that I can get my diploma!

    What method are you using to generate your PDF from Word?  What version of Word are you using?  (edit:  sorry, I see now you mentioned Word 2003)
    Are you using the Word's PDF convert-to icon or are you using Print>Adobe PDF ?

  • Word to pdf problems - pdf splits 1 doc into 3

    hi there. i'm using a mac and when i save a single word doc to pdf using the print options i end up with 3 pdf documents. what can i do? it seems to be that a large table on one page (which is set to landscape) splits the file up. i.e. it saves all that went before the landscape page as one doc, the lansdscape page as another and then all thats after this page as a third doc.
    thanks

    This is an old problem that has plagued PDF's created from Word Documents since PDF has existed.
    If you have any Page or Section Breaks, and also if any of the section breaks contain switches in Page Orientation its a given that it will happen.
    MS has got so tired at Adobe dragging its feet fixing this problem that they added a PDF converter that does cure Page break problems and make cure section break problems  except when page is switched from Portrait to Landscape orientation. It debuted in Office 2008. But has since been incorporated in Office 2004 through updates. They installed a direct word to PDF Converter. Simply, go to SAVE AS... from the file menu. Scroll down list of conversion type. until you see PDF. Choose PDF and it "should"  create your document just fine.
    This is one case where Adobe nor Microsoft want to admit to a bug. Its kind of like the old chex cereal Commercial. "I don't like, you eat it. NO I don't like it You eat it. Instead of fixing the problem they've let it go on close to 20 years now. Adobe swears up and down that if they could just could figure out Word and excel Page and Orientation Code for Section and page Breaks.
    Microsoft has come up with there own Converter for PDF  In Office 2008 you go to Save As... and from scroll list choose PDF. Its also been introduced in 2004 in some updates. Even it may not solve the issue if you have section breaks with Page orientation changes (from Portrait to Landscape)
    If you can't or won't update do the Following:
    open first part of PDF
    go to Documents Menu
    Select insert Page scroll to end of document then choose insert at end of page. choose the desired PDF into insert.
    Repeat the above with the thrid part.
    This is easy, with just your 3 page document. But gets old fast, if you have a 500 page Document with lots of page or section breaks.

  • Trying to convert word to pdf and getting error message using Ver. 7

    I what sent a word doc by a correspondent of mine which I tried to convert to a pdf. I right clicked the doc on my desk top and chose "convert to PDF". It looked as it has all the other times but after it had opened word it came up with an error window/message of "Missing PDFmaker files." "Do you want to run the installer in repair mode?" and then a yes or no button. If I hit no it closes everything if I hit yes it acts like it's installing something and after a while it tells me that the computer needs to be restarted for changes to take affect. I have run it twice now and it doesn't change anything.
    can someone give me any tips on this?

    You did not indicate the version of WORD. If it is WORD 2007, then you can not do this function with AA7. Try opening the file in WORD and printing to the Adobe PDF printer. If that works, then look for the PDF Maker options in WORD (create PDF). If you find them, then try that. If they do not show but the print worked, then you indeed have an issue with PDF Maker - probably either the macro is not activated in WORD or the version of WORD is 2007.

  • If you need to send more than one document via email to a recipient with a PC, how do you convert them to a Word or PDF before sending them in one email?

    When trying to send an email to a PC user and need to send multiple documents, in the old version of iPages, you could save the document as a Word or PDF file then attach them to the email.  I don't see how to do this with the new version.  Therefore, the only way I can see to accomplish this task is to go to each document and send them individually in another version.  Otherwise, the PC user will not be able to view the documents - correct.  There must be a way to convert and save the documents like before so numerous documents can be sent at once.  Please help!

    What fruhulda said. In addition, in the Mail composition window, I recommend that you select the paperclip icon from the Toolbar, and enable Send Windows-Friendly Attachments.
    You can also select multiple files in the Finder and drag them onto the composition window. In my experience, the documents resist an iconic state, so right-click on just one, and choose View as Icon from the contextual menu. This will transform all attached documents into icons.
    If you want to send just one document from within Pages v5, use the Share icon in the Toolbar and select Send a Copy > Email. You can then choose PDF (and its image quality), or Word (.docx default, or .doc) document formats that will be attached as an icon in a new pop-up Email composition window.

  • Hyperlink problem when converting Word to PDF

    Hi everyone.
    I am using Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Standard version 7.1.4 on a Windows 2000 environment.
    I am using Word XP/2002 SP3.
    I have a couple of problems when converting Word to PDF.
    When converting a long link which is in 2 lines, PDF just takes one line into account, not considering the whole link
    When I have hyperlinks that links to a web page, the link works fine in Word but in pdf, it gets the few words after the url address making the link not work.  For example.  I have a hyperlink that http://www.google.com/ and after this I have the words: "This is a sample text".  The hyperlink in pdf would then become http://www.google.comThisisasampletext
    Do you have any ideas how I can correct this?
    Thanks.

    To get the cross references, you have to use Convert to PDF (PDF Maker part of the Acrobat product). However, you first need to go to the print menu and set the printer to the Adobe PDF printer. Close the print menu and then do a reflow and link update of the document (ctrl-A, then F9 I think). This is needed to get the links correct since WORD reflows the document based on the printer (problem with them going to the wrong place).
    Printing to the Adobe PDF printer (the step of print to file is not needed, just print to the printer and the rest is automatic) does not include the links. PDF Maker is a PreProcessor for the Adobe PDF printer that adds PDF Marks to the PS file before it is sent to Distiller (OK, the printer when used normally creates a PS file and then invokes Distiller to complete the process - your steps did with the Adobe PDF printer is the same process done manually).
    Summary:
    1. Fix document after setting the printer to Adobe PDF.
    2. Use PDF Maker (create PDF button)

  • How to use .joboptions file while converting from Word to PDF

    Hi,
    I'm pretty new to Acrobat. I'm using Acrobat XI. I need to convert a word document to a PDF file which conforms to certain requirements described by a given .joboptions file. The .joboptions file can be opened by distiller, but as far as I know distiller is not invovled in the conversion (Word to PDF) process. So how can I make sure the converted PDF file meets the requirement described by the .joboptions file?

    Distiller is used when converting from Word to PDF, if you do it via the Acrobat panel, not the Adobe PDF printer or Word's internal Export to PDF command. If you've loaded your joboptions file in Distiller (via Settings - Add Adobe PDF Settings), then you will see it in the drop-down of Conversion Settings when you click the Preferences button in the Acrobat panel in Word.
    After you've selected your job options profile click the Create PDF button, and the file will be converted using the selected options.

  • Trouble creating a pdf converting Word doc ..."Could not find the application that created the file"

    Hello,
    I am working with Acrobat Pro 8 and am trying to create a pdf by converting a word doc. When I try that, I keep getting an error message, " Could not find the application that created this file...please select a file created by an application that resides on your computer." I can always convert a word into pdf first and then insert it into the pdf project that I am working on, however I have multiple files and I really would like to bypass that long step.
    I found another thread in this forum which talks about a simillar issue (http://forums.adobe.com/thread/429585).I tried the solution suggested there by Bill@vt regarding the print menu. I am not really sure if t have distiller installed, so I tried opening it in acrobat, but it failed. During the process, I got the follwing message "Check the Status column for a list of files that could not be printed".I do not have any clue how to check for AcroTray running in the background.
    I would really appreciate any help.
    Thanks!

    If Distiller failed to open, it sounds like you need to do a repair of your Acrobat installation. Have not heard that one before!

  • How do i convert word to pdf

    Two months ago I s signed up for a system cositing.$19.99 a month. I have been unable to even do a simple conversion from word to pdf.

    Hi hothorses,
    If you have bought acrobat then you can follow the steps mentioned above to convert the file to pdf.
    If you have bought the Create pdf subscription then you need to sign in to: https://cloud.acrobat.com/convertpdf  with your Adobe ID.
    This is the screen that would appear.
    Click on the blue button that says 'Select Files to Convert to PDF' and you will see the following window:
    You can either navigate to the location of the word file you want to convert or simply drag the files on to this window.
    After selecting the file, click on 'continue' button to convert the document to pdf file.

  • When I convert a PDF to a Word doc, it "converts" as a picture and I cannot edit the document. What can I do to get the PDF to convert properly?

    When I convert a PDF to a Word doc, it "converts" as a picture and I cannot edit the document. What can I do to get the PDF to convert properly?

    Hi conversionnewbie,
    Are you able to select the text in Word by triple-clicking inside the text box? (Sometimes text selections can be tricky in converted files.) If you can't select the text, then I'm guessing that the PDF was created from a scanned file (so the text becomes images). Make sure that OCR is enabled when you convert the file to Word. OCR is enabled by default in the ExportPDF web interface, but can be disabled in Adobe Reader. If you're converting to Word from within Adobe Reader, make sure that OCR is enabled and that the correct language is selected:
    Please let us know that works for you!

  • Converting Robohelp Content to a Word and PDF document.

    I am in the process of creating an online help manual with several jpg images.  The jpg images are clear in Robohelp, but when I convert the content to a Word or PDF, the content and images are fuzzy and blurry, especially the PDF. Any thoughts or suggestions as to why this is occurring?  I did not have this issue with my last project, the clarity, content, and formatting was very clear including the jpg images.
    Thanks,
    Wendy

    Hi Wendy,
                there is almost no conversion of images on generating any output from RoboHelp, can you please also specify how those topics with images were created.
    if possible please share a sample image and correponding code snippet from RoboHelp.
    you can try removing any resizing done to those images and then generate the output.

  • More problems while converting hyperlinks in word to pdf - missing first words

    I'm using Microsoft Office Word 2007 and Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro Extended (I think on Windows XP).
    If I have a word document with a working hyperlink when I convert it to PDF (using the Acrobat button in Word)I end up with a working hyperlink in the pdf file but it is missing the first word. For example :
    in Word the hyperlinked phrase will be http:/tinyurl.com/MarinaBloj but in the pdf version it will be :/tinyurl.com/MarinaBloj
    or
    in Word the hypelinked phrase will be "Sensitivity to luminance and chromaticity gradients in a complex scene." but in the pdf version it will be " to luminance and chromaticity gradients in a complex scene." with an extra blank space.
    worse, if in the word it is a single word, say "PDF" then all you get in the created pdf document is " " i.e. a blank space that is actually is a hyperlink (you can see the corresponding address if you hover the mouse).

    I am experiencing the exact problem...hyperlinks work after conversion from Word to pdf however first word is missing. I can only reproduce the problem on one computer. Other computers I have tried it on do not have that problem. Here is a work around i found....You can select the entire document (Ctrl + Shift + End from the beginning), then go to "Create PDF". Go into Options and select the "Selection" option. Then proceed to convert the document. It's a workaround but I'd like to know what the cause of the problem is.

  • 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?
