    Question Advice of software to convert pdf files

    I'm after advice about software I can use to convert my pdf's into (I'm embarrassed to say) word documents!! I produce a lot of e-brochures for one of my clients, and I think in an effort to keep their costs down, they're after me supplying a template that they can then add the relevant text into. I work in illustrator, and normally supply pdf's for the client to e-mail. I've come across several software packages that claim to be able to accurately convert pdf's to various file formats (.ppt would also be useful as well as .doc). I tested some last night and the results were awful. Has anyone any experience of this and or any packages they could recommend? Thanks

    To be perfectly honest I have never went from PDF to doc.

    I believe the OP has found some by google already but they have had terrible results and so they were after a recommendation by someone who had used one

    Sadly I can't help either but I wouldn't be too hopeful given Word's incompetence when it comes to images. I know there are a bunch of people where I work who would jump at the chance to be able to edit some of the stuff I currently have to edit for them though so if anyone has got any experience of doing this well, I would also like to know
