Default Table copy-paste


Hello,

I've a big big problem with a big big doc -
I'm in the middle of translating a major text with
tables and diagrams . the original is .pdf, converted using
solidpdf.

Now the tables, whenever I try to copy-paste them, are all over the place,
- what a mess. It seems the text is independent from the lines of the tables
and each part behaves independantlty.

Is there any way out of this hell ?

A tool , another reconverter, a way of putting everything right simply ?

Thank you very much for your help

Nash

Default Table copy-paste

PDF to DOC converters make the documents editable, but not well-formatted. A
lot of manual reformatting will be required. :-(

To recreate a table, you can select the text and then do this:

Table | Convert | Text to Table (Word 2003)

Insert tab | Table | Convert Text to Table (Word 2007)
