How do I convert PDF to Word for free?

There are two basic formats for PDF files. Text based and image based. Text based still preserves the letters, image based is like a photographic image — the text data is lost. Text based lets you copy the text, image based does not. Some not so good ways. Print the PDF file and then scan it in and choose MS Word output format, OR Open a new word doc (for text based only). Open the PDF file Highlight the topmost letter in the document. Page down to the bottom and press Mouse-click That should highlight the whole file (sometimes A works.) Enter C (or right-click copy)to copy the entire document to the paste buffer Paste inside the word doc (V) If you have OCR SW, then try that directly, i.e. skip the print and scan The above ways preserve much of the formatting, but you still have to do some clean up

Convert PDF to Word: All You Need to Know

The above do not preserve the text for the image. If you don't want to be left with that, you can convert the image to text and then send that into the computer to be “translocated” to other text files. This is a long and involved, multi-step process. There is also the fact that if the image is very big you may have to add or remove borders. You can avoid all of this in the first place by having a separate PDF file for your original image and your final image, and sending both to the printer. Then just do the text conversion and print/scan. When printing the image, make sure you set the “display as” color to black and white or transparent. This reduces the amount of ink on the page and eliminates the chance of smearing from ink droplets. If it's too thin, you can.
