 * Converting PDF to Doc **

Cannot open the File
 * Why did This Message Appear?**

Applications such as Microsoft Word, support specific file types. If you are trying to open a file that is not supported, the application does not recognize the format of the document and tries to convert it. As you can see, the built-in conversion utility in Microsoft Word is not great at converting documents. However, there are plug-ins available that you can install.


 * How to view such documents?**

The simplest way to read documents that are not supported, is to install the software or plug-in that supports it. This may be an expensive proposition. Alternatively, you could convert the file to a supported format using software conversion software, such as Word Viewer. For example, you could convert a PDF file into the DOC format so that Microsoft Word can read it and you can then edit the document. Good software conversion software is usually not free.

It is recommended trying to view the document using Google Docs. For more on Google Docs, refer to the :- What You Can Do With Google Docs tip.
