Converting PDFs with Google Drive
Portable Document Format (PDF) is now an open standard for electronic document exchange maintained by ISO. When you convert documents, forms, graphics, and web pages to PDF, they look just like they would if printed. PDF files can contain clickable links and buttons, form fields, video, and audio — . , Anyone can read PDF file using free Adobe Reader® software or the Adobe Reader mobile app.
We need to edit a PDF, because some mistakes have crept in or we want to extract a part of the PDF or we want to share the contents with a person who has only notepad/excel.
Adobe has many paid services like Acrobat XI, costing from Rs 13000/- to 30000/-.
Many free online converters are available for the purpose if we Google ,but they have the limitations like the size of file/number of files etc.Some desktop converters like Free PDF to Word Doc converter is capable of only inserting the image of the PDF file into a Word document, but it fails to extract text out of it for use in Note pad or word pad for editing. OCRs are needed for this, which extract text as from scanned or printed documents.
For retirees like us, who hate to spend money on software at this age Google Drive is a free utility to convert PDFs to Text.
