Raymond paid a buck to be first this week followed by questions from John, Natalie, Bonnie, USSRover, Stan, Cailin, Parag, Doc, Anne, Dane, Tim, Joanne, Dane and Jana. They asked about Windows 7 email problems, meaning of default, unrecognized laptop hard drive, Find function in OpenOffice spreadsheet, how to know when you are being scammed, improving laptop performance, backing up hard drive files and troubleshooting a Windows boot problem, reversing a PDF, IE 8 problems, Windows 7 networking problems, browser and resolution question, and attaching photos via iPhoto on a Mac.
Here’s the answers!
Referring to Anne’s question about reversing a pdf page: that function in that program will reverse the order of the pages within the pdf file. The last shall be first.
I haven’t used the program, so I don’t know how well it works. The website does offer a trial period, so the obvious solution is to download it, test it, and only buy it if it works for you. Just make sure you scan it for viruses before you install it.
Thanx Dave,
However, that’s not at all what I was looking for. I was wondering how to reverse something which is in PDF format.
Such as, word is made into pdf. Is it possible to change pdf into a word document?
Theoretically, yes. But it may not be easy. If you can copy and paste the text on a page of your pdf file, then you can copy it into a word document like that. With a big file, that may not be practical. It also would not retain any of the document’s format. It seems likely that there is a program that would do that, but I can’t name one offhand.
If you can’t do a copy and paste, you have a document that is in picture format. The only way to convert that would be to run each page through an OCR (optical character recognition) program, such as topocr. I doubt you can find a program to do this automatically, but it’s not impossible.
Just stumbled across this program that converts a pdf file to Word format:

Ahh, now the real question emerges. Looks like there are tools for that Anne. Including an online conversion site that converts many types of formats to other formats called: Zamzar
Whew, thanks for clearing that up…I had no idea what that was or why one would need it. Thanks for the comment!
Hi Dave, how r u doing?
I like the video… but still I don’t get it 🙁 just visiting here LOL
Sounds great! I like free trial pdf to word converter software very much. But there’s a problem. Because of my job, I often need to convert PDF to Word, and I have used some freeware, but it hardly meet my needs. http://www.nemopdf.com/how_to_use/pdf_to_word.html
