Corrected export PDF to Word

Hello

I'm just experimenting Acrobat Pro DC to try to convert old documentation in PDF format and convert it in MS Word format, so that we can update and modify old documents.

I scanned the original document in at 1200 dpi and run some improvements on it to make it more readable, run OCR on this subject and corrected all errors (of which there were a number, the original typewritten is quite poor in places).

Now, when I try to export to Word, Acrobat reruns the process of OCR on the document and I get a horrible mangled mess of a document again. I can turn this off, but I just get a bunch of images in a Word document that I can't change.

How can I get a Word document that contains the text corrected OCR that I meticulously spent 2 hours correcting itself in Acrobat?

Did you use the 'Clear Type' option for the process of OCRing?

I save, close, and reopen the PDF answer key before you convert it to Word. This will reload the file in memory with the saved result and not what is in memory.

  • Text missing when exporting pdf to word doc

    I'm trying to export a pdf file to word in Acrobat DC, but despite all my efforts on 2/3 of the text disappears. The headers appear, but the text body is unrecognizable because of so many missing characters.  I tried to print the PDF to the PDF printer, but no dice. I'm also pretty sure that I have the font that was used in the document already downloaded - does anyone else have this problem?

    PDF to Word, Excel or any other format conversion is one of the most complex things, you can try to do it with a PDF file. It works very well in some cases, in other cases, the output doesn't have much to do with the original file. The key to success is that the PDF file must be "marked" - which means that it contains information about the information displayed in the file. The best way to ensure that a PDF file is properly tagged is using the PDFMaker in Acrobat to create PDF from Word or Excel file (this is the Acrobat Ribbon or toolbar).

    Unfortunately it is not that you can do to improve the output without spending a lot of time (for example manually tracking file). In addition, if you use Adobe ExportPDF service and do not have access to Acrobat, it is even not an option.

    In most cases, the only thing you can do is complain to the original author of the file and tell them that they used a PDF generator bad to create the PDF file.

    Sometimes you get better results when you export the entire file for the individual (e.g. 600 dpi) TIFF images, and then re-import these TIFF images in PDF format and finally run OCR and export to Word.

  • Export pdf in word does not have all of the correct characters

    If the export in word does not produce a workable piece, can I get a refund? I have over 100 pages that I have to work on and the scans look great/perfect PDF. However, exports in Word are not!

    Hi agr495,

    The conversion quality largely depends on the quality of the PDF (not necessarily what it looks like, but how it is written). Not all third party applications write spec PDF files. Have you used the software provided with the scanner to generate the PDF file? If so, this could explain why the conversion is not what you expected.

    That said, you can certainly request a refund if you decide that you do not want the subscription.

    Best,

    Sara

  • Export PDFS to word

    How do you ensure a correct formatting when you export a PDF to a word document?

    It is impossible to ensure. You can do it fairly well, but a lot depends on the way in which the PDF document was created. If the PDF file was created with the marking tags, you could get a very good performance. If it's a scan, you'd be lucky to get anything close to the PDF display and can have problems of police according to the way in which the analysis was made.

    Try the export (or save it as others > DOCX) and give some more specific questions to answer more directly.

  • Export PDF to word to make searchable words

    Greetings,

    I recently started a class online for the College and the manual was given the College in PDF format. The manual is all images and if so I can't find the document for keywords. I bought the function export to PDF because it says that it could export to word document and index words. After I exported the PDF file, the word document is exactly the same as the prior PDF with no searchable words.

    What can I do to make the words in the searchable image?

    Thank you

    Adam Budde

    So I thought to it. If you open the converted file on the web, it is not searchable. If you open the actual file that has been converted for you, then the words are now available. Thank you.

  • Export PDF to Word question

    I export a PDF document to word, but when I do it takes a bit of text on each page and in fact a reference.  Essentially, this destroys the formatting and does not modify the word document.  Cut and paste text from the notes in the text, place a transport not editable return after each word.

    I have an Adobe PDF Export account.

    Any ideas?

    Frequently, the quality of the result depends on how the file was created. It is very difficult to export to Word. When a PDF file is created created the word Windows using the Acrobat, a Ribbon, markers are created in the PDF file that make round tripping easier than when the same handling file printed to PDF. I know I don't not useful any of it useful. As a former user of Acrobat time, looks like a review on how the bear dance rather than the wonder that the bear can dance. I can offer alternatives. You can download a trial version of Acrobat, and see if it does better. You can try the see when exporting as plain text is an improvement. Print the file for paper, scan, run OCR in Acrobat Pro suit. It would be nice if the export to PDF was always perfect. Somethings it is, sometimes, it is not.

  • I tried exporting a PDF score in word format, but it seems incomplete. Is there any way to export the music score PDF to word correctly?

    I tried exporting a PDF score in word format, but it seems incomplete. Is there any way to export the music score PDF to word correctly?

    Very, very unlikely, unless you export each page in the form of a simple graph, slats, words and everything. You ask too much, especially given that Word is not a music creation application.

  • Word 2010 on PC - using the Acrobat plugin in French - kerning is not correct in PDF format

    Here's my problem: I have a complex Word document (manuscript of 700 pages with internal hyperlinks by using bookmarks and Table of contents).

    I can't get the PDF to create correctly. I have the latest Acrobat and also the Word Acrobat plugin. I also have a Mac and a PC.

    I can't save the PDF on a Mac because it will not create a PDF file with dozens and dozens of hyperlinks internal - so I need to get the Word/PDF to work on a PC.

    I have great difficulty exporting the word because the document is mainly in Arial and the process will not embed Arial. Word/Acrobat will embed all fonts used in the document, but not Arial. It is a real problem because the Arial font is changing dramatically in the PDF file. Letters are even overlapping - exported as a PDF from Word, the document is almost unreadable. Of course, the police works great when you create a PDF on the Mac. I CAN incorporate the police once established in a PDF of Acrobat file, but it does not solve the problem of kerning. This isn't new the text layout.

    I'm frustrated and feel out of options.

    Any suggestions or alternatives? Is this a known bug in Word/PDF?

    Another autour work could switch to another font, but that would be extremely tedious because it moves the items from one page to another, and the document is 700 pages.

    Any help appreciated!

    The problem with the change of the police, it is that the document is set up like a book with page breaks in specific areas and chapters from the right side of pages etc.

    The reflow would be tedious.

    After many tests - in this file - Arial does not incorporate when choosing the options EMBED police or even make a Distiller profile. And the absence of incorporation is the origin of the problem of kerning.

    However, I found a solution that I'm very excited.

    If you select / a conformity: PDF/A3-B STRENGTH incorporate all variants ARIAL used in the document and the kerning the problem is resolved.

    I hope this helps other people who have had problems with Arial incorporates, as it seems there have been many problems based on research on the web for this topic.

    Good luck
