Change a PDF doc into Word?

Counting_Pennies_2

Hi you lovely ones, I am sure there is a forum more suited to this, but you are all so quick with helpful replies I thought I would ask you first.


I have a PDF document and I am wondering if there is a way of changing it into Word, so I can type on it.


Does anyone know if this is possible?


Many thanks

I use this site

https://www.pdftoword.com

it emails you the .doc once it's done and if you need more than one you can get a free account. It's worked really well on any documents I've put through it

Ditto for me.

I've got Acrobat X at work which will convert most mainly text documents in PDF back to word. Doesn't always work for forms though, sometimes mucks up the formatting.

Another solution is use a PDF editor that will allow you to add to or change the PDF file.

The proper Adobe editor is expensive but there used to be a number of free PDF editors for Windows. I can't help with the names because I've been a Mac user for years and they come with the ability to work with PDF files.

The problem with converting to Word is that you might lose the formatting etc. You'll end up with the wright text but it might not look as good as the PDF original. If this isn't important then it won't be a problem.
