Hi karenb60536875,

There are some PDF types (such as those that are protected by password) that cannot be converted. But when this is the case, you will get a message during conversion and the conversion stops. It looks like not this is the case for you.

What happens when you open the Word document converted to Word? You see an enable editing button in the upper part of the document? If so, please click on that. If you are still unable to select text in the Word document, try triple click to select.

For reference, I will say that the quality of the conversion depends on the quality of the PDF file (see Will Adobe ExportPDF convert text and shape... |) Adobe Community). Thus, there may be cases where a PDF prepared by a third party application (a non Adobe application), may not be written to spec, and that can affect the accuracy of the conversion.

Best,
Sara
