Converting Documents
When you specify conversion as a Document and not a Form, you invoke the
program's normal conversion algorithms. These are governed by the settings in
the
Document Options
panel. Two layout choices are available: Flowing Column
and True Page
®
. The latter can sometimes be suitable for converting form-like
PDF files. See
Converting Forms
.
Additional information
Not all PDF files can be converted directly, but must be passed through an
Optical Character Recognition program. See
Special PDF Files
.
Microsoft Word can accept page sizes up to 22 x 22 inches (55.88 x 55.88
cm).
Converting very big, multi-page PDF files, especially color files, may take
several minutes.
To help you estimate the time necessary to convert a big document we
publish some indicative speed data. The average time for converting a
standard sized page is:
Black-and-white:
2.5 – 3.0 seconds
Grayscale: 3.2 – 3.8 seconds
Color page: 5.5 – 7.0 seconds.
These data were measured on a Pentium III computer with 1 GHz and 512
MB RAM.
Graphics from the PDF pages will be reduced to the maximum permissible
resolution you specified under
Document Options
.
If you cannot restore the layout as you wish, and you have OmniPage Pro,
you can use it to convert the PDF. It offers more control over the
formatting and conversion process than when the
built-in OCR
is used.
See
When to Use OmniPage Pro
.
The language assigned to converted documents depends on your
Windows local settings. If it should be different, select the whole converted
document, or parts of it, and set the correct language using the menu item
Tools\Language\Set Language in Microsoft Word or
Tools\Language\Settings in WordPerfect.
