If you have or access to Adobe Acrobat Pro
It is a easy job just import it and it will do it all for you or other way round.

Got Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 on my machine at the moment.

If you want to email me the PDF will give it a go and return both to you.

Not having used the facility before have just tried with a one page pdf. Popped up with a word doc in a flash but unfortunately doesnt seem to like addresses on letters so some reformatting may be required. But still a lot quicker than cut and paste.

Thanks John and David

Just looked at the security settings for the document and it is set for no copying altering etc. As I do not have the password that's it.

Once again thanks

Do a Internet search to Unlock PDF's.
There are programs that can assist in doing this,
Does depend on the Legalities of Copyright etc if you wish/have permission to proceed of course.

I found a program that seemed to claim to be able to convert password protected files - but then it asked for the password!

Found something that did it page by page.

As for the question of copyright it was produced by part of the organisation that I work for.
