You might try using My Morph from the same site as Docmorph. You must download the application, but it is handy to use if you have high volume pdfs to convert as we do.
Sometimes the morph program will not work.... pages too large, or if pdf is secured document. Then we use the Microsoft Office Document Image Writer and save to a file to import into ariel...this usually solves the problem.

I too use Docmorph and import in 3.4 without issue. I've only been doing this about 6 weeks, and I seem to remember an issue with the way I had to save the file from Docmorph. I have to right click on the file link and Save Target as, rather than open the file and then save. The latter file save did not import correctly. Hope this helps.

Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2008 7:53 AM To: arie-l@u.washington.edu Subject: [ARIE-L] Question about importing Good Morning I am having a problem importing multipage .TIF files into Ariel v. 3.4. I have tried several different conversion programs to convert a .PDF into a .TIF so I can import the file into Ariel. The conversion process appears to be successful and the file opens as a multipage .TIF in other programs. However, when I attempt to import the file into Ariel I receive the following error message "Invalid Document Format. Press the F1 key for Help". Just to make sure that the conversion software is not the problem I have used 3 different programs. They are: Convert PDF To Image v. 2.33 Universal Document Converter DocMorph (Online Service from National Library of Medicine) All of these have converted the .PDF into a multipage .TIF without a problem, but Ariel is not recognizing them. I seem to remember a thread or two on the listserv concerning this, but I am unable to find very much information on this. Does anybody have any suggestions?
