When converting an Arabic pdf to a Word document using Adoble Document cloud the Arabic text becomes disjointed.

Any advice on how to resolve this or better ways for converting an Arabic pdf to an Arabic Word document, would be much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Try OCRing the file with ABBYY FineReader. I had once a document with a mix of English and Arabic (I had to translate the English part). After OCRing, both looked fine to me, but I can’t comment on the quality of recognition of Arabic as I’m not really proficient in it and only can judge by appearance of the letters.
