If you are starting the conversion process from within the free Adobe Reader, you may want to try to upload your PDF file to the ExportPDF service directly via your web browser: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf

Based on my experience, the interface built into Adobe Reader is not very robust, and using the web interface directly is a lot more reliable.

Hi Shanyn Pedersen,

Please let us know the following information:

A)How to you export from PDF to Word?

     1>Are you using Adobe Acrobat (and if so, which version)?

     2>Are you using the ExportPDF service?

     If you are using ExportPDF, are you using the free Adobe Reader to start the conversion, or are you uploading the file directly to the      ExportPDF web service?

B) Are you facing the issue with a particular file or it happens with any kind of file you are trying to export?

Please send us the file if the issue is specific to that file.
