Q18: Why converting PDF file to Excel I get error "Conversion error"?
A: In order to convert from PDF to Excel, the PDF must have visible tables (visible table borbers). This is because the conversion process takes the contents in the tables of the PDF and places them into corresponding cells of the Excel spreadsheet. If the PDF does not have tables, it is impossible to convert to Excel. It is always possible to convert the PDF to a DOC file regardless of tables.
A: HTML is short for HyperText Markup Language and is a language used to create electronic documents, especially pages on the World Wide Web that contains connections called hyperlinks to other pages. Every web page you see on the Internet, including this one contains HTML code that helps format and show text and images in an easy to read format. Without HTML a browser would not know how to format a page and would only display plain text with no formatting that contained no links. Below is an example of a basic web page in HTML code.
A: HTML consists of a series of short codes typed into a text-file by the site author - these are the tags. The text is then saved as an html file, and viewed through a browser, like Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. This browser reads the file and translates the text into a visible form, hopefully rendering the page as the author had intended. Writing your own HTML entails using tags correctly to create your vision. You can use anything from a rudimentary text-editor to a powerful graphical editor to create HTML pages.

A: TIFF is an abbreviation for Tagged Image File Format. It is a raster file format for digital images.
