PDF to Word Conversion Yields Text Boxes

Recommended Posts

Steve Chesebrough

I am using Nitro Pro 12 with Windows 10. When I convert a PDF image file to Word (*.docx), I get a series of separated text boxes. I do not get a continuous word processing document. Is there any way to obtain a continuous word-processing document? Thank you.

All of the conversion options are under File, Preferences, Conversion.  Hopefully one or more of the options works out for you- if so, it would be great to know what setting worked and what didn't work.

Thanks!

It worked out well. 

First I used the OCR command ("make searchable and editable"), to prepare the PDF for conversion. 

Then I invoked Convert to Word, and set the dialog to "Highly editable (With layout)". 

That worked well for my case.
