Looking for a good paid or free PDF conversion software. (perferably not too expensive.) I have several documents in PDF format. Some are Word PDF files with text, numbering, and graphics,and some are Excel PDF with formulas text and values. I am looking for a software that will convert those PDF files into a regular Word docuent or Excel spreadsheet where I can then edit them, move paragraphs around and delete text. Has PC Word every done any reivews on the best software to achieve what I'm looking for, or does anyone have any opinions on what brand of PDF software that will do a fairly good (if not great) job? Thanks.

Welcome to the community, lindaepnj! This is a free online PDF to Word converter created by the folks that also created PrimoPDF - a personal favorite.

I use Pdf coverter 7 from Nuance. It's not free but it has a great track record for me. http://www.nuance.co...rter7/index.htm It's the next generation back from Nuance but you can get it for $49

I have never used a paid version to convert my PDF files to word I always used freepdfconverter.com, but if you want more functionality you can register for it's full version.

Yes, Henry definitely paid pdf converter software are too much efficient rather than free versions. I am also using paid software from 123pdfconverter website. This pdf software is too much beneficial for me. Thanks !

I give you all the free PDF Converter software, which is free of cost. Don't worry, it's not a trial version and doesn't require much memory to install. It simply works with MS Office 2007.

Just download the attachment and extract it. After that you need to install it.

Go to Microsoft Word 2007, There you can see Office Icon in upper left corner and you need to click on that and go to save as, there you will find an option like PDF or XPS. Go with that and click on publish. You have saved your document in PDF format.

Attached File(s)

Word 2007 and later already have this exact functionality built in. I'm a bit suspicious of the attached file. (virustotal.com didn't find anything though)

The attached file doesn't contain any suspicious thing. If you want you can download it.
