Is the PDF formatting preserved in Word?

Text and basic tables are preserved; complex layouts and image placement may shift somewhat.

Can scanned PDFs be converted?

In scanned PDFs the text is stored as images, so it may come through as images rather than editable text. Conversion is most accurate for PDFs whose original content is text-based.
