Converted PDF to a Word document but cannot change font size

I purchased the Adobe program that would allow me to convert my PDF files to Microsoft Word.  I converted one of my files to Word, but when I open the word file I am not able to do a simple edit like increase the font size.  Once in the Word document, I chose "Select All" under the Edit tab, just as I always have.  The text was all highlighted, but when I went to the font size drop down menu to make it larger, I chose the larger font, but the font size in the document did not increase.  Am I missing a step?  This is the process I always use with Word documents that I create.

    Hi Armumbles1,

    As per the issue description mentioned above, you are facing issue when trying to edit word file exported from a pdf, is that correct?

    As we have checked the account details using the email address you are logged into the forums, you have subscription for Export PDF.

    Could you let us know if you are trying to export pdf in Adobe Reader desktop application or online using a web browser at this link: https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf

    Have you tried with another file to check if its not a file specific issue?

    Also, would it be possible if you can share the pdf file you are working with to replicate the issue at our end? To share the file here in the forums, refer to the steps given here: How to share a file using Adobe Document Cloud

    Let us know if you need any help.
