Hello

Have a search on Google for a converter to Word (here is one with a trial: http://www.mystikmedia.com/pdf_converter.htm).

The software from Adobe that you need is Acrobat Professional but it may not quite do what you think. It allows you to annotate and make small adjustments as opposed to be a full editor.

There is a PDF editor called Pitstop but it costs about £400.

Acrobst Pro is probabaly cheaper allows some text amendments. PDFs are really designed not to be editable.

A quick Google comes up with several free pdf creators - the first on the list (which I haven't tried, but appears fully-functioning) is

Thanks for all the help, have downloaded the Adope Pro 30 day trial and will look at Google for other solutions
