I need help to improve conversion of PDF to Word after trying Enterprise Solutions for Google, Acrobat and Microsoft; my PDFs are Product User Manual (in foreign language) which typically contains Tables and Pictures.

 

Text within Tables are either:

  1. incorrect OCR
  2. font size enlarged and text are not entirely visible until they are manually reduced

 

Are there tool to remove following obstacles?

Some elements are known to be:

  • Tables with cell spacing
  • Page colors and page borders
  • Tracked changes
  • Frames
  • Footnotes that span more than one page
  • Endnotes
  • Audio, video, and PDF active elements
  • PDF bookmarks
  • PDF tags
  • PDF comments

Document elements that don’t convert well as per Microsoft
