Pdf to Word


Since I started downloading articles from the Internet for study reasons, I've been struggling to copy and paste pdf into Word documents in order to be able to manipulate the text (underline, highlight, summarize, etc). Unless you own Acrobat Reader Professional, this seemed to be a lot of hard work. I had heard of conversion sites, but had not tried them until today. I googled for one of these and came across one that finally did the trick (and a pretty good one): PDFtoWord. I found it extremely easy to use, accurate, fast and FREE! In 2 easy steps you upload your pdf document, choose DOC or RTF format and enter the email address you want your converted file to be sent to. In a few minutes you get the Word file, complete and well-formatted. I only found a few italicized lines missing from titles. Just check the file you obtain before you delete the pdf.
