Default PDF to Word

I have Office 2003, WinXP. I tried one free PDF to Word download, that
promised to send it to my e-mail, but it never happened. Any suggestions?

Alan,

Thanks. The first one is the one I had tried, and never got the e-mail from
them.

I've just now tried the other one (zamzar); and am waiting for the e-mail.
How long have you found it takes?

Joy

Have you tried copying the text in the .pdf and pasting it into Word?

Wow, I didn't think you could do that and still make changes in it. Just
tried it and that works! It's a list of names and addresses in SMALL print
(in the .pdf) and I needed to be able to enlarge the font size in order to
read it and type it into a WordPerfect table. THANK YOU!

I really don't remember how long Zamzar took. A day perhaps?

Hi Joy.
I would also like to use the free online conversion service such like
http://www.zamzar.com. But since more and more people use them, they always
cost me so much time to wait for the converted word file. Besides, most of do
not support encrypted PDF files conversion.
So I now prefer desktop app AnyBizSoft PDF to Word Converter as it supports
encrypted files, batch conversion and preserves text, layouts, images and
hyperlinks well. http://www.anypdftools.com/pdf-to-word.html#168
You can have a try and hope it can do you some favor.
