PDF to Word

What is the difference between PDF and Microsoft Word

If you often deal with documents on your computer, you probably noticed that they are usually presented in PDF format. The Portable Document Format (PDF) is a versatile file format that preserves fonts, images, and the layout of the original document, regardless of which of many platforms and which of many applications the document was created on. The Adobe PDF format is considered the recognized worldwide standard for the reproduction and exchange of secure electronic documents and forms. In 2014, the ABBYY study noted an increase in the number of documents in PDF format. At the same time, 68% of company employees believe that the flow of paper documents has increased. During its existence, the PDF format has significantly increased its capabilities. Even in the first edition of the format, it became possible to insert hyperlinks into text, encrypt a document with a password and thereby protect it from modification.

Microsoft Word is the most popular text editor used on computers and is already available for mobile devices. With it, you can create text documents, format text using various layout settings, add images, tables, headers and footers and other elements. Microsoft Word is the most popular text editor, and almost every user, if not worked in it, has definitely heard about this program. The docx format is the most modern format for storing text documents. This format was first introduced in Microsoft® Word 2007. It is based on the Open XML standard and uses ZIP compression to reduce file size. If you need to save a document in a format compatible with previous versions of MS Office, then the already known doc format is intended for this in Microsoft® Word 2007. Thus, the created document can be read by all users of the program of different versions.
