    Olá!

    As far as I know, you can't “export” from InDesign to Word, but you can save a PDF as a Word file. It isn't pretty, though. Just think of all the wonderful features you use in Idd that don't exist in Word and you'll realize why your end product may look like a train wreck. I tried it that way before myself, and ended up building the document from scratch, in Word. It was such a mess.

    By the way, your English is much better than my Portuguese. Or should I say Japanese? :-)

    You can export your text to Word using the File>Export>Rich Text Format

    You have to have your text frame active, that is, use the text tool and click inside your frame.

    It will only export the text on a frame by frame basis. So if your frames are not linked/threaded then you will only get one file for that frame.

    If you create a PDF, the PDF does not have any styles, therefore anything saved from the PDF to Word would not have the same style names as the InDesign file.

    You're right, Eugene. RTF works better than the PDF method, but like you said it only works one text frame at a time, and doesn't bring images in.

    If you're just trying to bring text in and have multiple text frames, Rorohiko makes a plugin that will export all of them. See it at https://www.rorohiko.com/wordpr…..-exporter/
