Hi thanks for the tutorial.  How do I create a link that other people can click on to see the document.  At the moment the html link is on my c drive, so if I give that file path say to one of my colleagues, the link does not work?

Thanks

Hi Tariq,

If you have the Pro. version of Acrobat you can use an Action to convert multiple files from PDF to HTML.

Thanks,

Hi Anubhav,

You’ll need Acrobat and not just the free Reader to Save As HTML.

Thanks,

Hi Jacqueline,

Not all layout can be replicated during the export process especially something like text over an image. You’ll probably need to fix it up in an HTML design tool or export the problem area as a JPEG image for your HTML file.

Thanks,

I have a pdf with text over a background image; how do I keep this format when converting to html with X1? So far my attempts have broken the layout. Thanks.

Hi Richard Hettler,

As you’re probably aware PDFs can easily be viewed in any browser. However, if you want to convert numerous PDF files to HTML files, you can create an Action (with the Pro.) version. Here is a tutorial that explains how to create an Action:

Hi Louise,

Yes, you can do this. Check out this tutorial - it’s for Acrobat X but the process is the same in Acrobat XI:

Can you convert PDF to Word - maintaining track changes completed in PDF.

Hi Lisa,

Are you generating a single HTML page or multiple? Also, if you have a lot of graphics, this could be the problem. Does this happen if you uncheck “Include Images” in the Settings dialog?

Be sure to update Acrobat XI to the latest point update because there were some improvements made in this area.

Thanks,
Lori

Hello,

Thank you for your video, it’s very helpful.  I am trying this with a PDF E-Book.. the book is about 350 pages. I want to convert it to mobi using the Kindle_gen program from Amazon.  My problem is that my file seems to get stuck on “reconstructing document” when I’m trying to save as an HTML file.  Could this be that it just takes a long time to reconstruct it since it’s a long document?  I think I’ve left it going about 10 minutes but since I can’t tell if it’s doing anything I wondered if it was freezing up.  Do you have suggestions or info on this particular problem? Thank you!
