Do you know of a way to cleanly/legibly convert a California court filing from PDF to Word? The line pagination makes a mess of the conversion and the Word document needs a lot of clean up to make it usable.
Let me move this to the Acrobat forum for you, where I hope you'll find a useful answer for your question.

I have the same issue - how to convert PDF on pleading paper (with numbers 1-28 on left side) to word document docx. Just "convert" creates really messy formatting
Is this an issue with a particular PDF file or with all the PDFs? Please try with a different PDF file and check. If the file is stored on a shared network/drive please download it to your computer locally and then try again.
What is the version of the Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 23.08.20470 installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.
Also try to repair the installation from the help menu (Win Only) and see if that works.
It is a problem with ALL PDFs. on pleading paper. Desprately need solution to convert to word. d.docx. ESSENTIAL in legal industry. Can it be done, Adobe?
DocStyle is the only way I know to convert it without having to go take out all the line numbers. It's not perfect, you may have to still make a few edits but if you want to save time (and money), it's worth a try.
it retains the format but does not allow editing like a word processing document. any other advice or recommendations? how could something as simple as this be so complicated?
