I need to convert 1K pdf files to doc on a debian server. I can convert a PDF to word using libreoffice commandline: libreoffice --headless --invisible --convert-to doc Sample-doc-file-100kb.pdf Or using soffice: soffice --nocrashreport --nologo --nolockcheck --nofirststartwizard --invisible --headless --convert-to doc Sample-doc-file-100kb.pdf The main problem with the above two commands, is that the doc file doesn't include images in the pages, it only contains the formatted text. Is there a better way to convert pdf to doc, including also the images present in the pdf? I am not interested in web services like zamzam, I need to do that from command-line on the server. Thank you.
