Convert PDF to doc, odt, rtf and txt
Comments (7)
We’re rolling out new formats all the time here at Zamzar, but we’d thought we’d take the chance to remind you of one of the most popular conversions you can perform – You can use Zamzar to convert pdf files to doc, html, odt, pcx, png, ps, rtf or txt … all online, and all for free !
The PDF, or Portable Document Format, was introduced by Adobe in the early 1990s as a means of displaying documents in a consistent manner across any computing platform, and guaranteeing that complex graphics and diagrams remained accurately represented wherever the document is viewed.
One limitation of the PDF format however is the time-consuming process to open up and edit PDF documents. Zamzar helps by letting you convert your PDF file into an editable format (e.g. Microsoft Word), and then convert it back to PDF again once you’ve made your updates ! Why not hop over to the site today and test out our PDF conversion process on your docs ?
Thanks,
