Converting PDF To Word

[SAAER45]

I converted a PDF Document I had with some program I bought (e-PDF to Word Converter 2.01). It converted fine, but instead of the word document having text, (being able to edit and stuff), all the lines were seperate "picures"



I want the document in Word with all the graphics and text, but I want to edit out paragraphs (basically be in the same format as if I typed it in Word). Any Ideas?

Can't you copy and paste? I know with Foxit Reader you can... Then you should be able to just paste the stuff in Word or whatever and edit that way.

I think you're going to need some type of OCR (optical character recognition) to do that.

Yeah, you can.



Select that, and then do the normal copy and paste routine

Yeah, you can.

I don't understand, it is a file, not a URL and when I click that select thing it doesn't do anything (except if I right click it, then a series of menus pop up.)

Are you clicking the select button, selecting the text to be copied, and then copying it?

Yah, but the copy option is dimmed out... I assume that means that it is copyrighted material or something (It's just a brochure for a cruise I'm taking). Any Ideas?

Can you send it to me so I can try it?

Yeah, I can't get it to work either. Unless someone can figure out how to make it copy from the PDF, the only other option I can think of is to use some sort of OCR program. The only problem with that is that all of the free programs I've used aren't very effective...
