Good morning, I have asked this before but no one has answered
I have a program now that will convert the pdfs into a word document. It is Omni page or Nuance converter. I can't tell exactly which part of this is actually doing the conversion. I - the company now receive all fax transmissions through the all in one copier, fax machine, scanner as pdf files. They are deposited in a folder on the shared drive of the company. I need to have the Omni page program to convert all the fax files that are delivered as pdf files. Into word to be able to read them and distribute them. I have Word defaulted as the program to open a pdf. Now when I receive a pdf attachment in my email program the outlook enhanced app refuses to allow word to open and convert the file. The outlook enhanced app reports that there is no program associated with this file type. This is not correct since I know that I have defaulted word to open all pdf files. I have no choice through the app to tell it what is the program to use to open the file attachment. What can I do. As it stands I have to go back and change the default program to open pdf files in Adobe reader, to allow WE to open an email attachment, Each time I need to open a pdf document from my email. This is a real pain. Is there a way to tell Outlook enhanced that word is going to open the pdf document? Or is there a way to make the choice on a case by case basis like I can in windows explorer? With word defaulted as the program to open the file I can't even save it some ware else to open as I choose. I can't simply turn off the app because without the app I can't reach the attachment at all. Thank you Shannon If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
