I was wondering if you could help me with a small problem I'm having. I've created a pdf using a forge component called UltimatePDF and I'd like to convert the PDF that comes out of it into a word document. I've had a look at a few forge components but none of them meet my needs, does anyone have any idea how I can overcome this dilemma?
Note:
I'm developing the project in reactive on outsystems version 11
Hi @Salif Faustino
Can you please tell which components you used to convert pdf to word.
Best

Hello @Arun Rajput, I'm not using any component yet because I can't find one that fulfils this need.
Hi
if you are up to using an external service you may give my Adobe Acrobat Services Component a try which is able to convert from multiple formats to word and vice-versa.
Here is a Getting Started as well article for it: https://medium.com/itnext/starting-out-with-outsystems-and-adobe-acrobat-services-dd3410ff920e

Thank you very much for your suggestion @Stefan Weber . Based on the information I read in the article, I realised that in order to use the component i need to have a paid Adobe Acrobat account. I don't know if this is the right solution for me, as I don't have the paid version of Adobe Acrobat.
Yes. Adobe Acrobat Services is a subscription based cloud service. But it has nothing to do with Adobe Acrobat :-) AAS charge you per transaction (one document transaction).
