123PDFConverter promises users a simple solution to the problem of converting PDF files into easy-to-use Word files. While this process may sound difficult and complicated, this fantastic program distills the operation into something practically every user can operate.
This program's simple interface makes conversion into child's play. The opening screen allows users to select what PDF they want to use by browsing their hard drive and then also select where the DOC file will be saved. From there users begin to convert. A series of screens lead you through the process, ensuring that everything is perfect. Users designate a layout (Flowing text, formatted text, text-only and as-is), next they choose whether they want images to appear, whether character spacing should remain and conversion range of pages. Finally, all the options are laid out on one screen for review before conversion begins.
From this point the program shows a meter detailing the stages of conversion. The program quickly and effectively creates Word documents in our tests.
The trial version has a slim 14-use trial, but the simplicity of using it makes this enough time to fully evaluate the program's capabilities. 123PDFConverter is an easy-to-use program that lets users of all skill levels achieve the same results. Because of its simplicity and effectiveness, we highly recommend this program for download.

"Partial conversion feature is an absolute Godsend"
Version: 123 PDF Converter 4.1
Pros
I wont have to convert a complete pdf for just a few pages anymore. Partial conversion solved my problem of converting only specific pages of my pdf file to word document. I tried some other software but found 123 pdf converter to be quite better for my needs.
Cons
Found nothing wrong yet.

"Crashes, Bloatware, AVOID"
Version: 123 PDF Converter 4.1
Pros
NONE: AVOID.
Cons
Every page of the install has a number of bloatware and toolbars to uncheck and then tries to TRICK you into accepting it afterward into accepting it anyway. Be VERY careful when installing to pay attention to these and avoid installing. Companies that do this should be banned from this site in my opinion. Then it forces you to put in an email address and gives no option to opt out of receiving special offers. Ridiculous.
Summary
Terrible. Avoid unless you love bloatware, toolbars and spam emails.

"Optical recognition crashes"
Version: 123 PDF Converter 4.1
Pros
Difficult to find anything in my case
Cons
Converting pdf to doc gave one blank page and a second saying that I had to pay to get more than the first one. It would be hilarious, if it wasn't for the fact that I needed something done, and installing this sw was just a waste of time for me.
Summary
Did not help me convert pdf to text or Word doc in any way. Completely useless for the use I needed, unfortunately.
