Is there any free software, online service can convert pdf to doc well? I have tried pdfcandy, cloudconvert, the result is acceptable, but the table in the doc file is disordered, maybe someone in this community has better suggestion?

Adobe do not have any free software to do this at all.

And other software exists, but this is an Adobe forum; they do not give the forums for a discussion of their rivals.

 

It may be that the task is just too difficult. PDF files don't contain tables, only text and lines. So getting a table is always guesswork, and there are many ways to guess. Always consider conversion to DOC a tool to use as a last resort, and expect complex documents to need a lot of work to recreate them.

Google may be your best friend. If you have difficulties with a non Acrobat program, however, do not ask for solutions here, as Adobe does not own the PDF file format and support is only granted for Adobe products. I will lock this thread now. You can submit a new thread if you are working with Adobe products and have problems there.
