When I import a document pdf on libreoffice, all pages are blank.
What I have to do?

First off, avoid having to do this if you can. PDF isn't meant for this. Have a copy stored in a word processor format like odt.
But, if you don't have such a file and LibreOffice can't import it properly, here's a suggestion, though it's kind of obvious: open up the PDF in a PDF reader (like Evince), copy the text, and paste it into a new document. It's not even close to a perfect way to do it, but it's one thing you can do if you don't have a more effective way.
But I can't, my pdf file has been scanned. I use Xsane.
First I have multiple .pnm, and If I modified one image, Xsane refuse
to create the pdf.
So my solution of this problem is editing pdf. But it's not easy...

And in case the PDF consists of images (of text) rather than text, you need to OCR it.

OCR's success depends on the quality and contrast (etc) of the source material. It's likely you need to proofread the text however. There are various tools in the repos.
Wait a second. Do you want
a) to edit the text of your pdf file in word? That's not easy. You have to use a program for text recognition.
b) your pdf just to get displayed properly in your word file? Then why not simply include it as a picture?
I want to edit my pdf. Not for puting text, but draw.

I will also add that it is possible to edit PDF documents using
Inkscape, although not ideal. Depending on what you're doing, OCR might
be a better idea.
Andrew.
Editing files before export on pdf it's the best, sure.
But in my case, Xsane doesn't like this.
I should settle Xsane's problem first.
Thanks.

What's the best free OCR engine?
