How to Convert PDFs to DOCX
A PDF (Portable Document Format) is a file format that can be read by many programs on both PC and MAC computers. PDF files are popular because they retain the original integrity of a document. DOCX files are documents created in Microsoft Word 2007. Word provides a simple way to convert DOCX files to PDF files, but reversing the process is more challenging. Use free programs online that can take the text from a PDF file and change it into a DOCX file for use with Word.
