    PDF

    Hello,

    Regarding your PDF documents, the location will be based on where you saved the files. For your second inquiry, your documents can be converted to a PDF. If the original file is from Office Word, we suggest that you follow the steps below:


    • In Word, select File > Save As.

    • Select where you want to save the file.

    • Type a new File name if you want.

    • For Save as type, select PDF.

    • For Optimize for, select an option: Standard or
      Minimum Size.

    • Select Open File After Publishing, if you want to open the file after you save it as a PDF. This is selected by default.

    • Select Save.
    If the steps provided is not working, please get back to us with the exact version of your Office Word.

  3. All files are saving as PDF

    Hello Microsoft Community!

    I am having an issue that just started today, very strange and annoying. All of my files are saving in PDF format, no matter the original program or the "Save As" selection. It is still showing up in the file explorer as a PDF. Below are a few steps that I have taken to attempt to resolve the issue. If anyone has any suggestion or insight that may be helpful, I am all ears. Thank you!

    • Attempted conversion from the original program and also Adobe - no luck with this.
    • Attempted to save the file in a different location, both cloud and local. No resolve.
    • Ran anti-virus to check for anything harmful. Clean scan.
    • Ran SFC to check for corrupt files. Scan located and repaired files.
    • Went into the default program settings. No changes were need there.
    • My pc and all programs are up to date.

      Again, any help or suggestion is helpful.

      Thank you kindly!
