Converting pdf document to word

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We have a requirement in which we need to convert the downloaded certificate from pdf format (downloaded from smartforms) to word (any editable) format. Our certificate contains boxes and critical alignments which should not get misaligned.

Kindly provide some solution.

Regards,

Ninad.

To convert PDF file formats to Word, I would like to refer an excellent third party software, Stillbon for PDF to Word software. By using this software, users can easily convert multiple PDF files to Word file formats. this tool provides complete conversion from PDF file to Word without any data loss.

Free trial version of the software is also available to download at- https://www.stillbonsoftware.com/pdf-to-word/

Hi Ninad,

Please can you confirm if you are trying to convert PDF to WORD offline to SAP or by using some Function Modules online? If you are trying to do this offline, then there are many online PDF-To-WORD converters available which you can use to get them converted as desired. But in case you are willing to convert the spool to WORD or trying to convert the PDF file to WORD, you can check ABAP help and explore the below threads -

Also, please open a new thread in SCN forum for ABAP Development and try exploring to the same forum for further inputs.

Dear Arijit,

Precisely, I have to convert smartform to word using ABAP and then trigger mail to user giving word doc in attachment. I have done a lot of research and have tried all the above links which you gave. I have come to conclusion that there is no straight forward way to do this, so I am looking for a way around if possible.
