You can change a PDF to Word on a Mac using the built-in Preview app that comes with your Mac. Here’s how:
Open the PDF file you want to convert to Word using the Preview app.
Click on “File” from the menu bar at the top of the screen and select “Export”.
In the “Export” window, choose “Word” as the file format.
You can choose to export the entire document or only specific pages by adjusting the “Export As” setting.
Choose where you want to save the converted file, give it a name, and click “Save”.
Preview will convert the PDF to a Word document and save it in the location you specified.
Open the converted Word document in Microsoft Word or any other word processing software to make any necessary changes or edits.
If you don’t have Preview or if you want more advanced features, you can use a third-party PDF to Word converter software such as Adobe Acrobat DC, Abcdpdf, or Smallpdf. Using the tool Abcdpdf as an example, the method of converting pdf to word is:
First open the website and reach the page for converting pdf to word.
Then click the upload button and select the document you want to convert.
Finally click the “Convert” button and download and you’re done.
Although third-party websites need to open a browser to complete, there are many third-party platform tools that are free and do not require registration.
