PDF is a graphical representation of a document intended to avoid such
editing. Neither Word nor Powerpoint can convert PDf to editable text. You *may* be able to create an editable document if you save it as Word format from the full version of Acrobat, but the resulting document will at best contain text in frames which are difficult to edit. There are third party conversion tools available or you could use PDF compatible OCR software such as Finereader 9. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org deb wrote: I am trying to extract a pdf into either a word or powerpoint document that I can make changes to, to the text.
