Using free Adobe Acrobat Reader 6 and Win XP Pro, I've been able to extract text and images from .pdf files by using the 'select text' and 'snapshot' tools respectively. Text I then edit by cutting it from the .txt file and pasting it into Word; I transfer images to PowerPoint, then save them as .jpg s which can be fiddled with using normal graphic software and then pasted into the Word document. But I don't know whether this would be feasible with Wordperfect?
