I cannot successfully open the PDF files in my Microsoft Word. When I choose a PDF file in the Word, previously I can open it as a docx file. But after I update the version of my software. I cannot use this function. The software told me to choose a translation type of the file, but I cannot choose the .docx
How can I fix this problem or change some settings in my Mac computer or change some settings in my Microsoft Word software?
Hi,
How did you open the .pdf file in Word? From Open option in Word?
If I open the .pdf file in Word directly, I can choose the encoding I need to convert.
Please be a bit more precise to explain your problem or you can upload a screenshot so that I can get more accurate solutions to this problem. I’m glad to help and follow up your reply.
I open the software and then click the Open Button and choose the .pdf file.
I only can choose the encoding like HTML and other excepted .docx
