xpdf comes with pdftotext wich can convert pdf to plain text files. It is
command line, but drag & drop works just fine.
 
I can't seen to get it installed as a Win2K program..
Was hoping for a simple windows program

Thanks, anyway,
Willard

I have got PDF 2 Word professional from Magnaways together with a magazine.

It is not free, but is believed to be very good.

Nevertheless it produce rather crappy documents. It doesn't seem to be the
conversion, but more the very format of Word, which is not suitable.

Conversions might be quite usable, if you have very simple documents, not
more.

Michel

Hi Will. I`ve had some success with:
Load PDF into Acroreader, select all\copy, then paste into Word.
So if you`ve got Acrobat 6, and word, give it a whirl.
best wishes..OJ
