How to convert PDF to Doc

Convert PDF Documents to Microsoft Word (DOC).

Doc is the generic file extension for documents, traditionally used for documentation in plain-text format, particularly of programs or computer hardware, on a wide range of operating systems. During the 1990s, Microsoft appropriated the popular DOC extension for their Microsoft Word wordprocessing formats. In consequence, the former uses for the extension have largely disappeared from the PC world.

Here is the step by step guide telling you how to convert PDF to Doc with Solid Converter PDF.

Solid Converter PDF is a flexible conversion tool for converting all or part of PDF files to a Microsoft Word (DOC), rich text format (RTF) document, or plain text. You can also use Solid Converter PDF to extract images from a PDF file. There are two primary methods for document conversion:

• Wizard Conversion - The wizard walks you through the process of opening a PDF file, explaining the steps in detail and allowing you to choose from different formatting and file saving options.
• Fast Conversion - If you already are familiar with the document formatting options, you may want to use the fast method for converting files from PDF to a DOC or RTF format.

The following tells you how to convert a PDF using the fast conversion method. Note that you can also quickly convert PDFs directly from Microsoft Word or Windows Explorer.

Step.1 Download Solid Converter PDF here and install it.

Step.2 Run Solid Converter PDF, and In the Solid Converter PDF window, browse to the folder containing the PDF file(s) you want to convert. Select one or more source files to convert (you can hold down the CTRL key to select multiple files).

Step.3 At the bottom of the window, select your Reconstruction Mode. Options are:

• Flowing - Recovers page layout, columns, formatting, and graphics, and preserves text flow.
• Tables - Recovers page layout, columns, formatting, and graphics, but ignores columns.
• Continuous - Does not retain the exact layout of the document. Correctly reconstructs the text order but will only recover paragraph formatting, graphics, and text flow.
• Plain Text - Displays text without any formatting or layout. This mode will not recover formatting (characters or paragraphs) or graphics but will recover text flow using column and page layout analysis. (Note: You must use the wizard when converting a PDF file to plain text.)
• Exact - Uses Word text boxes to ensure that the text and graphic layout in the Word document is the same as the PDF file. This mode should not be used if you need to make lots of edits to the recovered content. It is most useful for short artistic or brochure-like documents.

If desired, you can select the Keep Character Spacing check box to retain the same character spacing as the PDF file and/or Prompt for Page Range if you only want to extract specific pages from the PDF file.

Step.4 Click the drop-down arrow next to the Convert button and select one of the following:

• Save as DOC - Saves the new document as a Microsoft Word document.
• Save as RTF - Saves the new document as a Rich Text Format (RTF) document.

At this step, you can select the option "Save as Doc".

Step.5 If you have selected the Prompt for Page Range option, the Convert Pages dialog box displays. Select the Pages from button, enter your starting and ending pages, and click OK.

Step.6 A message will display that will notify you when the conversion is finished.
