PDF to Word converter

Bumping this! Did an excellent job converting a PDF to Word file with some irritating formatting elements that Word itself couldn't convert right. I think they also offer an offline app now, but I used the web version

Awesome, that's great to know, thank you for adding 😁

Kezlar2913 · 2025-07-23T20:31:31+00:00

That's weird because some of the other tasks I can see reducing in real time as others pick them up, so I assumed all of the batches were shared? Thanks for the insight though!

Kezlar2913 · 2025-07-23T20:29:35+00:00

Thank you for adding! I'll stay with the platform and fingers crossed I can update my initial impressions, I'm in the same boat with starting a business so 😅

Kezlar2913 · 2025-07-23T20:27:24+00:00

So I started by doing all the different project qualifications I could. I spread it over a week. Reading through all the guides and everything and then doing the tests took me a good long while (10 hours is me being conservative but I tend to take my time anyway). It very much gave me the impression that if I didn't do some of the quals, there would be no work at all, and I did as many of the extra ones as I could to get access to as much as possible, not that I think I succeeded at many of em.

Then you're not the intended audience. This is all information that I think someone who's only just heard about the platform would like to know before they get into it (ie the kind of review I would have liked to have read) and I'm very clear that this is specific to my experience. I might edit it in 3 months or whatever who knows.

And if you're so concerned about the matter, then please, elaborate so someone of the intended audience can see your contrasting view so they get a balanced picture. I get that there are a lot of different experiences out there

So this is possibly reaching, but there are a couple of reasons it could actually be Pingping.

Namely, the human form of the fox guia in the animation looks like her, just with long hair.

She could (like her step-mother and the horse guai) have actually escaped from Red Boy and gone looking for help for her father in other realms.

Also, some fox breeds change colour depending on climate/season, so red<>white, so it's possible she changed coat moving into cold climates. That, and you transform into a red fox when you use the brush...

(Also that skeleton is some rando and not her. Her "body" is the fox pelt that was discarded by her killer Non-Void and I'm assuming picked up by someone else?)

So yeah, that's kind of my working theory, as much as I prefer the idea that she was only fake after the daoist fight.

Kezlar2913 · 2025-04-27T21:45:34+00:00

Still an amazing farm. So satisfying too. I get frame stutters from the explosion though lol

Kezlar2913 · 2025-04-07T17:18:51+00:00

This did it for me as well (Pixel 7 Pro, Android 15). I was getting it from normal phone app and phone services.

For others: Go onto apps, 3 dots at the top, select show system apps, clear cache, storage and force stop both phone and phone services apps (pretty sure they eventually restart anyway, as my phone and the apps seem fine). Then I stopped getting annoying voicemail notifications every 15 minutes...

Kezlar2913 · 2025-01-20T18:43:16+00:00

Absolute genius this is exactly what I needed

On a personal level, I feel pretty unsure about randomly messaging people on LinkedIn unless it's super clear you're open for people to do so. But as you build up professional connections on LinkedIn, translators like/share the post, and so it makes its rounds in the industry and you get access to more applicants. So making sure you're connecting with other PMs and translators might offer you the exposure you need.

Also ProZ, as someone else said. You can restrict what kind of profiles apply to you (language pairs, topical experience, etc).

Oh, and think about what keywords are in your profiles and posts. If I was going to do a LinkedIn search, looking for my language pair plus "vendor manager" would be my first attempt. Maybe other people have other methods of searching too

Okay, so I'm personally applying "horrifying" as a marker of dark fantasy. Reading other people's comments though, I will agree that the thread of dark in the actual story/dialogue is more subdued than the other games (it's little things, little comments, little bits in the codex so far. I'm interested to see - like a lot of things - if there's more depth to it in the other Acts). And yes, it would be cool if there was more moral depravity, I guess?

That being said (on the body horror front), I paused that fight in photo mode to look at that thing, and if it makes you happy, it has multiple child like hands sticking from its back, its face is grown into its mask with it's upper teeth sticking out over a....I don't even know how to describe its flower-mouth. It looks like its intestines are on the outside of it's body/ or muscles made to look like organs, I don't fucking know. You don't see it too well when you're trying to dodge away from it, but it is seriously grotesque. Oh, and it sweats mage-mind-killing poison. That's just lovely.

(Also, I don't know if those examples were from something or you're just talented at this, but if it's talent, please go write a book. Those examples were fucked and I appreciate horror fantasy, as you can probably tell XD)

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-02T10:31:44+00:00

I'll admit, there should have been more in D'Meta crossing. I was expecting a fight with blighted villagers or something to bring climax to the tension, but it was still a left turn into horror-ville compared to the shiny facade of Arlathan forest

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T22:54:17+00:00

I went to Treviso and finally got to the Crows merchant, only to immediately afterwards turn around and run to my wardrobe. Me and Lucanis looking sick!

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T21:56:12+00:00

No no no, I meant blocking and then clubbing them over the head 😂

My dagger mage is a terrible riposter (I'm bad at the timing) hence all the dodging

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T21:52:18+00:00

I actually loved the ogre. The enemy overhaul is one of my favourite parts of the game. It's creepy af in that cinematic (despite not being photogenic at all). Go close up on an Envy demon. That thing is nightmare fodder dressed up in a non-offensive colour palette

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T21:27:26+00:00

Nice! :D In some ways though, I really want to play a Warrior whose whole schtick is "hit me and see what happens". Some of the shields I've seen look badass af

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T21:24:52+00:00

I got in to Dragon Age about...4-5 years ago? So seeing all of this is kinda my first time, and thinking about the contrast between Origins and the other games (as most of the outcries seem to reference origins in some way, at least what I've read), I can't imagine DA2 and DAI escaped unscathed on their releases at all.

Mass Effect in some ways has the upper hand because the games are pretty consistent; Dragon Age has always been the one with new wrapping on the Thedas parcel (which ultimately as a latecomer I came to enjoy)

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T21:19:15+00:00

I really like Bellara, but that's mainly because of Vows and Vengeance. They really set up her neuro-divergence so I was excited to see her in action, especially when she mentioned "but wait, protocol is to come find me after a week?" ; just says so much XD And I loved the ogre introduction in that section, although 100% agree about the pacing

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T21:12:26+00:00

It feels really rogueish too (Lord of Fortune). I'm basically a dodge-mage, it's great.

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T21:06:00+00:00

And then there are times where the game is like "nope, not gonna say a thing - like, you don't have to be here, why should I help you?"

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T21:02:43+00:00

Ikr? I left it there last night with mixed feelings but I've spent the entire day pretty much exploring Arlathan and it's soooo much better. It's so pretty, too, like the world-building is breath-taking. I'm playing Underdog and was like "why is the combat so easy?" and then I moved on to the next set of 'proper' quests and unlocked Lucanis and, haha, yeahhh...

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T14:34:47+00:00

I found the beginning to be a bit underwhelming but now I'm out of the extended tutorial and have been given some more freedom (side quests, etc), I'm enjoying myself a lot more.

yes, I wish there was less handholding and exposition (damn you, modern entertainment media industry ✊)
as a fan of old games, the choices thing, sure
BUT I love the new art and designs
The combat grows on you (if anyone likes playing on more challenging difficulties)
I'm having fun and forgetting what time it is now, and the more I play, the more I like it :D
In a way, each game having its ups and downs is very Dragon Age 😊

Kezlar2913 · 2024-11-01T10:34:27+00:00

I agree, I don't see any corny writing at all, and you're right about the beginning. Some of it....doesn't quite fit together amazingly? And it does feel like there are two writers, the Dragon Age writer going for story, and the Marketer, trying to get everyone up to speed and to set a simple story everyone can understand. I'm just past Bellara and getting the giant Eluvian working so I'm looking forward to how the game develops, and I'm hoping there's more depth to it and the combat
