Converting indesign to word...

[Twinklewoo]

Hello!

Further to my post last week where I was trying to avoid having to convert my indesign doc's to word - in the spirit of 'the customer is always right' I now need to convert these 13 doc's over into word so that it can be edited at will.

I have exported the doc's to pdf, and am looking for a converter tool (preferably free) which I can use to do this. The doc's contain photos, and columns of text - nothing too crazy - I would be really greatful if someone knew of a good one? I have tried www.pdftoword.com but an hour later I still have not received any documents emailed to me.

Much appreciate your help as I am a long long way from competent at all this!

I should add that Acrobat has now been updated so that saving to Word format is in the following location:

File > Export to.... > Microsoft Word > Word Document

My cursory experience is that the export function seems to be more robust than when originally posted this solution, but I haven't fully tested it.

Cheers!

I believe the Acrobat team has made several improvements in PDF to Word in Acrobat XI and Acrobat DC. Quite a bit improved!

One thing that worked for me was the site

PDF Converter - Convert to PDF Online Free

But I only did a test on free version

you could export an html file from indesign, then open it using word, then you can save it as word document, and it retain all the styles you created in indesign
