I need to convert a Word document into a PDF image?

Question

Hello!

I have a problem. I am finishing off a lab for school, and need to email it to some friends so they can have a copy of it. The problem is if I use any of the PDF Printers, all the text gets transfered over just fine, but I have some equations that I wrote up using a Word plug-in (Rapid-Pi) and they come out as jiberish. I can view the PDF properly on any computer that has the Rapid-Pi installed on it, but any other computers, including all the school computers the equations are all wrong. Could somebody provide some ideas how to get around this? IE: Make the PDF an image instead of text, if that's even possible? Thanks!

Answer 1

download Open Office onto your comp (its free) then open to said document in there (it opens all major files) then click File, then Export as PDF and that will put the document as pdf for everyone to use and they dont need open office to open it...

you can make a little trick to get the PDF printer to work, take a screen shot of your text (press Print Screen on keyboard, copy past it on paint or whatever other image processor you use and crop to have only the formula) save it and paste it on the document in the place of your formulas. Ain't a pretty solution, but it is fast.

Adobe Acrobat will cost you a lot,so ,i think, the best way to convert a word.doc file to pdf format is using pdf converter.Last week,a friend recommend Advanced word to pdf 5.0 to me,I am quite satisfied with it.It is very good in preserving the formatting. It also allow us to convert a lot files at the same time.

Make certain you are not saving the PDF as an editable PDF which can distort the text.
