new feature for microsoft office 2013A great way of preserving the look and feel of the original source document when sending to multiple devices, the PDF is a much loved office favourite.

Thanks to Word 2013 you can open PDFs in Word format, edit them and then save them as another PDF or Word Document. That’s great for correcting small errors or updating data to make it more current.

How to: Open Word > Browse PDF file > Open PDF > Start Editing

Tip: The conversion works best with documents that are mostly text. The more images within the text can prompt formatting complications.
