Default Remove Text Boxes, keep the text

This is the solution I have been waiting for - SAVE AS RTF!!! In my case I unticked the settings option to "include comments". Voila! a simple PDF with tables converted to a format I can use with WORD without 1000s of annoying text boxes. No more converting, no more messed up layout as I remove text boxes. No more text boxes inside table cells.

Very helpful!

None of the above methods worked for me. I found a solution that works if you have Adobe Acrobat.

Save the Word document as a PDF. Choose "Save as", "More options", "Rich text format". Save. Open the RTF document. If everything looks good, save it as a Word document.

Hope that was helpful!
