Converting PDF to DOC

B

Barry

I'm looking for a control to us on our web site that will take our reports
that are generated in PDF and convert them to DOC format all on the server.
We are using win2k3 web servers if that helps.


Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Barry

The most popular pdf/doc converter seems to be ActivePDF, but from what I
can see on their Web site, there is no feature that will go in the direction
you're looking to go, pdf-->doc - only vice versa. It does seem that
there are some programs out there that can do this conversion though. It
doesn't seem as though any of the newsgroup visitors are familiar with any
of them, so I guess you may have to investigate them on your own. Here are
some that I found. http://www.google.com/search?q=convert+pdf+to+doc

Ray,

Thanks for looking into this. I tried the same search on google and it
doesn't look to promising.

Where I work, we maintain all the original .docs or other files from which
we created the PDFs. It's a bit of a management PITA, but since we "know"
we can't go from PDF to DOC, we do this. Now, for the PDFs that we didn't
originate, well, the need has just never come up to create a .doc from one
of them. Hopefully it never does! :]
