How to Open a PDF File in a Word 2007 Format
Convert PDF to Word
1. Open a web browser and go to Nitro PDF's PDF-to-Word converter. Click 'Browse,' then select a PDF document saved on your computer that you want to convert to Word format. Select '.DOC' as the output format. Enter a valid email address and click 'Convert.' The converted DOC file is sent to you in an email attachment.
2. Visit the Zamzar website, a free online conversion site. Click 'Browse' to select a PDF from your computer. Click the 'Convert file to' menu. Select '.docx,' which is listed under 'Doc formats.' This is one of the few converters that will convert to a DOCX file, which is the default file format for Word 2007 only. Enter your email address, then click 'Convert.' The converted DOCX file is sent to you in an email attachment.
3. Open the PDF Converter PDF-to-Word converter website. Click 'Browse' to select a PDF from your computer. Select 'Word (doc)' next to 'Output format.' Enter your email address and select 'Attach files to email.' Click 'Convert Your File.' The converted DOC file is sent to you in an email attachment.
Open in Word 2007
4. Open the email containing the converted Word document. Download the attachment to your desktop.
5. Double-click the Word document to open it in Word 2007. If you prefer, open Word 2007 first. Click the 'Microsoft Office Button,' then 'Open.' Select the document, then click 'Open.'
6. Click the 'Microsoft Office Button.' Point to 'Save as,' then 'Word Document.' This will allow you to save the converted Word document to Word 2007 format --.docx -- if needed. Since most online converters will convert PDF to DOC format, aside from Zamzar, this step is necessary for the file to be in Word 2007 format.
7. Choose a new filename and location for the file if necessary. Click 'Save.' Now you can open and edit the converted document in Word 2007 format.
