Hi,

You can attempt a repair by opening Word, File>Open Select the document and then where it says "Open", click on the little arro next to it and choose "Open and Repair". If this does not work then it is corrupted beyond repair.

Cannot save PDF Files

There could be several reasons why you're unable to save a PDF file in PDF or DOC format. Some possible causes include:
  • The file is open in another program: Make sure the PDF file is not open in another program and try saving it again.
  • The file is locked or protected: Some PDF files may be locked or protected, which can prevent them from being edited or saved.
  • The file is corrupted: Sometimes files can become corrupted, which can prevent them from being saved. Try opening the file in a different PDF viewer, and if it opens without issue, then the problem might be with the viewer you were using.
  • Insufficient permissions: Make sure that you have permission to save the file in the location where you are trying to save it.
  • The drive or folder where you're trying to save the file is full: Make sure the drive or folder where you're trying to save the file has enough free space.
  • Problem with the software: It could be a problem with the software you're using to open and save the file. Try using a different PDF viewer or word processing software to open and save the file.
It's difficult to say exactly what the problem is without more information, but by checking these possible causes, you may be able to identify and fix the issue.
