I extracted some pages from a pdf file and saved to a Word doc file. I can
work with it just fine, but when I send to others they received a document
that says read only.
I've tested it out again - same process - extracted another few pages from
another pdf file (I use adobe 9) and the same thing. No matter how I save,
it comes up as read only when I send to another user.

How is the recipient working with the document? Note that e-mail attachments
should be saved to the hard drive before editing.

Also, note that the recipient may have to Unblock the file before it will be
editable (this is a security feature). Look for an Unblock button in the File
Properties dialog box (which you can open by right-clicking the file and
choosing Properties from the context menu).
