Notes:

• This conversion is not guaranteed to function as expected. If this happens, the student or faculty will need to look into a third-party solution, which may not be free (like Adobe Acrobat Pro). The Technical Assistance Center cannot support this software outside of best-effort.
• If you have a Google account login and go to My Drive:
  • Select Upload a File
  • Upload the PDF
  • Open the PDF using Google Docs
  • Select File
  • Click Download
  • Select Microsoft Word (.docx)
  • File will save as a word document

    Note: This will convert the file, however formatting may not be exactly like it was in the PDF
