If you have Adobe Acrobat 5 or greater, you can save the PDF file in RTF format (File, Save As). Still some tweaking to do but not a bad alternative. The RTF results depend on the type of Adobe PDF document you have (unstructured, structured, tagged). You can also save images in a PDF document seperately (File, Export, Extract Image As).
You can send you pdf file to
access-b@Adobe.com
It will be sent back to you in text mode.

You could also give Ghostscript (and Ghostview as a frontend) a try. The program is freeware and can read *.ps, *.eps and *.pdf files. It has e.g. also the option to extract/export the text from these files, and does not (at least the version I use) bother with the protection from Adobe Acrobat...

I know it's a tricky problem.
If your PDF is not too big, you could use the Text Tool in Acrobat to select and paste it in a new Word document. Of course, you'll have to take screenshot for the pictures. It's a bit painfull but it might be the cheapest way if your PDF is not too big.
Good luck !

I believe all others have only confirmed that this "Pretty much no I believe" is still the correct answer to the question "pdf to office format doc ".
