Title: PDF help! Post by: Hawkbit on February 11, 2009, 01:49:46 PM What is the best way to convert a .pdf to a .doc? Free, that is.
I work at a small library and we're getting a lot of people bringing resumes in for help, but they're bringing them in pdf format. I need a way to be able to edit them to assist people in rebuilding them (we're a job help center too). I'm wondering if we need to buy a converter program or not. Thanks, and the public sector thanks you too. :awesome_for_real: Title: Re: PDF help!

Post by: Hawkbit on February 11, 2009, 02:12:07 PM Thanks, I've tried three of the six on that site. Zamza won't accept the file and the other two leave stamps/watermarks on the .doc until you purchase their $40 version over the trial. This should give me another three options to try.
