- If your goal is to make small edits to the resulting document, you can use LibreOffice with the following command:
- ```
- soffice --infilter="writer_pdf_import" --convert-to docx document.pdf
- ```
This will produce an editable document, however each text chunk is enclosed in it's own box for positioning, so while small edits are perfectly doable, rewriting whole pages might be a pit painful.- ![screen capture of making an edit to the docx file](https://linux.codidact.com/uploads/mvfqtytzsgdjwgjqref83csg5cfy)
