PDF to editable Word file
Hello,
This has to be a lot more simple to do than it seems to be for me. I'm trying to convert and PDF file to a Word file that I can edit/enter with.
I've tried a few trial versions of converters, but each time I use the trial version the converted file opens up in Word and seems to be only an image instead of stuff I can change.
I'm not sure if editing the document is something that can be disabled by the person who made it?
I've attached 1 of the many PDF to Word files I have to do, and I'd like to see if it's possible to convert this file into an editable Word file.
I've also tried a few of the free converters but still seems the same as the trial versions in that the PDF seems to be just a picture and nothing editable.
If you can change this file please let me know what you used to do it. I'd think there's something out there a lot cheaper than adobe reader pro to convert PDFs into editable Word files.

if you are using Acrobat X (10), there is opition to save as MS Word files. Acrobat will do OCR directly when saving. As far as I use the end result is good with some alignment not in place.

I just think if I can get the document itself to scan I may have better luck w/ it, oh well.
Thanks for the time & tips
