Converting the document to the newer format lets you use newer features, but conversion might create difficulties for people who are using earlier versions of Word to edit the document. If you convert the document, they might not be able to work with certain portions of the document that were created in the newer versions of Word.
You can either work in Compatibility Mode or you can convert your document to the Word 2016 or Word 2013 file format. The Word Convert command clears the compatibility options so that the document layout appears as it would if it had been created in Word 2016 or Word 2013.
I tried to convert it using many different ways (save as PDF, export to PDF, Print to PDF (Microsoft, Adobe, CutePDF), Adobe Acrobat (paid) Create PDF / Convert PDF (via plugin and application), various converter tools (PDFgear, pdfcreator, CutePDF, LibreOffice, other Word version).
Export the original text to PDF (from your IDE or whatever you have it in). Then convert the PDF to SVG (try both with text to path or preserve text as text) and insert the SVG. This way you have a vectorized image rather than a bitmap, which will preserve the quality (and reduce the file size).
Enketo allows PDF exports but they aren't always the best for these purposes. If I was to give any feedback it would be to decide on what the purpose of the word exports is. If it is for someone who will review the content of the form then maybe it works well as it is.
I create forms in MS Word and insert fillable fields, check boxes and radio buttons. When I convert the forms to PDF, the form fields do not carry over in Nitro Pro. I have tried the "Create PDF" function in the Nitro Pro tab of MS Word, in MS Word I tried File / Export / Create a PDF/XPS Document and I tried importing an MS Word file into Nitro PDF. They do exactly the same thing which is just convert the file to a PDF but do not recognize or import any of the form fields. Currently the only option is to recreate the form fields in Nitro Pro (much more tedious and time consuming vs. MS Word). Anyone have experience with this or have any suggestions? Thanks, -JD
I am a final year graduate student and I have my thesis (about 350 pages) in Microsoft Word format. I would like to convert the document into a LaTeX "camera" ready PDF. Is there any easy way to do this?I am very new to LateX..
New version of writer2latex is pretty good. It works with the Open Office, but I think their command line utility should work without the OO. You can set quality of the converted document - from LaTeX as clean as possible, to version which tries to emulate appearance of source word document.
The free open source word processor AbiWord has an MS Word import function, and, if you install it (be sure to check it under install time, or if on Linux, install the necessary plugin package), a LaTeX export function. It works decently well for simple documents.
I am somewhat late to the party, as the question's author has, hopefully, graduated. But, for the sake of completeness of answers, I'd like to mention a universal (and now very popular) format converter pandoc ( ), which is open source and supports an extremely wide variety of document formats, including presentation slides and e-books.
You can't convert MS Word document to LaTeX directly. The two formats are rather incompatible. Last time I had to do it (a 4-page paper written by my Prof) I saved it as text-only and readded all formatting, math, images and tables manually. As you can guess it was quite an effort which is not doable for a 350 pages document, except in the unlikely case that it would really be all text with minimal formatting (some arts thesis maybe?).
Latex is a type setting language, and through programs such as pdflatex, you can turn this into a pdf file. It is certainly not the only way to create a pdf file. If creating a pdf from your word file is your ultimate goal, then there are much more sensible ways to do this.
If you have completed all the 350 pages in word (man, that should have taken long!), then I'd recommend using one of the paid services available and just get it converted. You could try maybe Word to Latex, Word LaTeX or something similar although I agree it is hard to find one!
word2tex seems like a pretty decent commercial option. Unfortunately, it only runs on Windows OS. It provides a "save as tex" option in the "Save As" dialog box. It also has dialog box that allows a wide range of configuration options.
There is It is a result of the Bachelor thesis "Word-to-LaTeX convertor by Michal Kebrt. I was one of the early testers and it produced really good results. The free version of 1.2 from 2007 is still floating around the net: -freebies.de/board/viewtopic.php?t=14932
Convert a number to a US English word representation. Convert a number to USD currency and check writing amounts rounded to 2 decimal places. Choose to have words for the numbers in lowercase, uppercase or title case to easily copy and paste to another application.
Microsoft Word's built-in PDF converter is generally very good, but always be sure to double-check for formatting changes in your PDF document, and especially check any graphics, illustrations, and tables that were part of your document to make sure they converted properly. In rare instances, you may have to convert lesser-known image formats (for example, those used by proprietary engineering programs) to a more popular format like .tiff or .jpg before doing the conversion to PDF format.
Use the Export or Save As feature to convert DOCX to PDF within Microsoft Word. You can also upload your Word document to Google Drive, open it in Google Docs, and then download it as a PDF. Adobe Acrobat Online also offers a web-based Word-to-PDF converter that's free to use.
