How to convert a PDF document? In which file formats is it possible to convert a PDF file, and what options are there for converting PDF files at all? What are the benefits of a PDF conversion? This article wants to focus on these questions, take a closer look, and answer them.

PDF documents can not be changed - or are they?

In most cases, PDF documents can not be changed without further ado, meaning that the content of a PDF file can not be changed or edited directly. If you try to open a PDF with a PDF viewer like Acrobat Reader, or if the PDF is displayed with a browser, the possibilities to make changes to the PDF document remain very limited!

Can a PDF conversion be the solution?

One way to convert PDF files to another format would therefore be a probate solution to allow changes to the PDF document or even make direct. At least if the file format into which the PDF is converted, this would make it easier than the PDF format itself. A file format that would offer this would certainly be the file formats of Microsoft Word (* .pdf → * .docx), or the free word processor LibreOffice (* .pdf → * .odt). If one were to be able to convert the PDF into these file formats, one would then be able to change and edit the content from the PDF directly. A further advantage of this PDF conversion in word processing formats would certainly be that one knows the handling with such word processing programs and these mostly directly on a PC installed.
