Word 2010 Embed pages from PDF and keep them editable

Is there a good way to insert pages of a PDF into a Word doc and have them remain editable.

I did read this http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/add-a-pdf-to-your-office-file-HA102351554.aspx

My other suggestion would be to take a screenshot of what you want and insert that.

The user would like me to check to see if there is a way to have it embedded and be editble.

What software does your user want to use to edit the pages of the PDF? Even if the PDF pages weren't being inserted/embedded in a Word doc, how would your user edit them?

Well the "other suggestion ... to take a screen shot" is likely to fail - unless something has changed a screen shot is just going to give you an image / picture in MS Word - you won't be able to edit the text...

Have you tried to select the text and simply use copy and paste? That might work for simple documents without complex formatting - e.g. tables etc.

Thanks. I figured as much but just wanted to make sure.
