Hello and thanks for your time! During the last few days I've been trying to convert a .pdf file to .docx (or .doc) using some of the converters you can find on the net but the results I got weren't "handy" (missing or overlapped lines, etc.). Am I supposed to extract first the main text and then insert the pictures and tables once I translated it, or should I be able to work with Trados and Word directly so in the end I won't need to do the formatting? By the way, I'm using SDL Trados 2007 9.0 ... See more Hello and thanks for your time!

Thank you Michael for your support, I have tried the first one and it works perfectly fine. I'm still having some minor formatting issues, not because of the conversion software but the .pdf file. This is it: http://www.bmj.com/content/342/bmj.d682.full.pdf As you can see, there are tables and graphics which won't keep the original format after conversion. Nevert...

I had a look at your file and it seems to be suitable the "infix workflow": convert to xml in Infix, translate the xmle, and finally re-create the pdf from xml. Antonin | |

Hello Antonín, Just out of curiosity, do you use memoQ? I am trying to figure out how to create an XML definition file (DTD) so as to import the XML files created by Infix from a PDF into memoQ optimally for translation. Michael | | |

Cordialmente, Michael [Edited at 2011-05-13 09:59 GMT] Hello Michael, I created a text only MS Word file (no tables, no special formatting) as I only need to translate the main text. Of course then I'll add the tables, change the fonts and layout, etc.. All of you helped me a lot, I really appreciate it. I'm a student and so far I haven't learned how to use all the resources and tools available.
