Corrupted Word Doc suggests using Text Recovery convertor
Doug_Robbins_Word_MVP thank you for responding. I have uploaded corrupt file. The file is a Word doc of approx 40 pages of ~120 pics , not a lot of text. Family history stuff. Cheers Chris
A repaired copy of your document has been uploaded to the following folder of my OneDrive
https://1drv.ms/f/s!AmuIXmFDy-1azRlX2JBMPPp_Nb1x
or
I have also uploaded a copy of the document that has been saved as a pdf file as due to the content of the Word document with images inserted into it with the layout being other than In-line with text, further corruption is likely to occur.
While it wouild be a lot of work, and should be done using a copy of the Word document, my recommendation would be to change the layout of all of the images so that the text wrapping is set to In-line with text, making use of a two column table in those instances where you want images side by side.
Let me know when you have retrieved them so that I can delete them from that folder.
