¿Por qué al convertir un archivo Word 2007 con Formatos incluidos lo transforma a un archivo PDF pero en blanco?

[anerealuna]

Estoy armando mi CV en Word 2007 y para darle un diseño diferente le agregué, con Formatos, cuadros de diálogo donde incluyo el texto y colores, lo guardo pero cuando lo convierto a PDF automáticamente lo transforma en un documento PDF en blanco. ¿Por qué sucede y cómo puedo cambiarlo, si es que puedo utilizar esta opción?

Los leo!

Gracias!

Reader only reads an existing PDF, it will not create a new PDF

Which paid Adobe program do you have?

Hi John,

I do not know which Adobe Programm have. My uncle installed and kee it up to date for me since I generally do not understand about software. Assume is not paid though. Could that be the reason for what the word doc does not save in pdf format? Excuse my low level of the lenguage.

Word should save to a pdf file without any Adobe software But you need to have at least the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to open that pdf.

Can you tell us exactly what you are trying to do and what is happening? We should be able to help if we have that info.

Ah. I just saw from your original post that you have a blank pdf document after saving it as a pdf from Word.

The problem will more than likely be with Word but tell us the exact steps you take to get from a Word document to a pdf.

Hi,

Yes, I will try to explain the steps also leaving photos of the steps so you can see them clear:

1) I open Word, create the file with formats, texts and colours:

This is the Word I use:

-I do not know how to change the file from one program to another so I search and use this website:

- I choose the file, click my email, and receive the file from word to pdf format. But I receive a pdf blank sheet.

Ah. Ok. You are using an online pdf converter. Nitro pdf. They are known for having problems. You don't need it though since Word has the PDF function built in.

With the Word doc open go to Save as, name the file then under the "Save as type:" choose "PDF"

After that, be sure you are opening the resulting pdf in Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Oh yes, I see it, but there is must be something wrong with my Word program, I do not have the PDF option that you explained:

Should I choose from one of the options above?

Also, thank you for the help and time so far

Sorry. I thought "Save as pdf" was available in Word 2007 but I guess not.

My next step if I were you would be to contact NitroPDF about their software and ask them what is wrong. Alternately, you can find support for Word but they'll probably just tell you to upgrade your version to something newer. But, as far as I can tell, this doesn't seem to be a problem of any Adobe software.

Hope this issue helps others, too. There is a way ~graffiti . After you said Word had the PDF option I search whithin the Help icon displaying the next window, after clicking the "Save as...":

I have the PDF option now but before it, I clicked "Other formats", clicking "Tools" and then "options saving":

I saw there that I did not have Pdf and then another website opened (I tried but cannot find the route now 😕

This is the website to download "complements" to Word, including PDF:

Here everything is explained, step by step, I could do it

Thanks John for your first reply, and Graffity for the necessary input.
