Copying an entire PDF Mar 9, 2004

Hi,

open the PDF, save it as *.tif or *.jpeg. Copy the file to Word at the cursor position by selecting Insert > Image > From file. Adjust the size of the image in your *.doc. That's it!
Note that this is going to blow up the number of bits and bytes in your *.doc a "wee bit". :=))
Greetings
Harold

PDF converter more a problem than a solution Apr 7, 2004

Today I finally came around to try the pdf-converter software. I got a 15000 word job on pdf, and when properly formatted in Word it would save me days of work being able to use a CAT-tool.
PDF converter does handle linebreaks mostly well, but on many locations the blocks of text have changed place. Today I spent many hours cleaning up the mess manually, sometimes copying manually blocks of text from the pdf and deleting all images and superfluous pagebreaks etc.
