If the file permissions allow it, you can also save the contents of a PDF document in text

1. Choose File > Save A Copy.
2. In the Save A Copy dialog box, enter the file name and location, and click Save.
You can save the file only in PDF format.
To save comments, form field entries, and digital signatures:
Do one of the following:
Choose File > Save to save changes to the current file.
Choose File > Save As to save changes to a new file.
Note: If you are viewing a document with additional usage rights in a browser, you can
only use the Save A Copy command.
To save an Adobe PDF document as a text file:
1. Choose File > Save As Text.
2. In the Save As Text dialog box, enter the file name and location, and click Save.
