Able2Doc Professional (A2D Pro) tutorial

Able2Doc allows users to open, view, and convert data from PDF documents. Users are then able to select the desired portion of the specified document and convert that portion of the data into a formatted Microsoft Word file.

Starting Able2Doc

Double-click on the Able2Doc icon.

The start-up screen will then show for a moment:

When the start-up screen automatically closes, the main window of Able2Doc will open, as seen below:

Opening a document

Select the Open... command from the File menu.

Able2Doc will show the Open dialogue. All supported documents in the active directory will be listed. Select the file you wish to open and type or click on its name.

Able2Doc will open the selected file in the new document window.

Use the scroll bar to find the section(s) of the document you are interested in viewing or converting.

Selecting portions of a document for conversion

Selecting the Entire Document: Choose the Select All command from the Edit menu. Note: This is not recommended for large documents, since converting the whole document can take considerable time.

Selecting one portion of the document: Left click the mouse button beginning at the position from which you want to select text. Drag the mouse pointer (while still holding left button pressed!) over the portion of text that you want to select. Once you have made the desired selection, release the left mouse button.

Selecting one column of a document: Able2Doc’s selection feature allows the user to select single columns using its selection feature.  Simply drag the mouse pointer (while still holding the left button pressed) over the column that you wish to select. Once you have made the desired selection, release the left mouse button.

Selecting multiple sections of a document: Select the first portion of text as above.  Additional selections are made by pressing the CTRL key on the keyboard and repeating the selection process as described above (CTRL key has to be pressed when left button is clicked, CTRL then can be released while left button is remains clicked until selection is done).

After completing the selection, the Able2Doc window will look similar to the following:
