   PDF's weren't designed to be read/writable and trying to convert one is a PITA. that said I found Open Office's writer with a PDF add-on to be about the best.

   Er, eh? PDFs are perfectly writeable, it's just that Acrobat Pro costs about the same as a black market kidney.

   The online converter at PDFOnline.com is very good, by all accounts. If you need a standalone program, try Nuance.

   I've used http://www.pdftoword.com it's free to use online with pretty good results but you still need to play around with the formatting.

    Acrobat Reader X will allow you to "save as text" if you're totally stuck.

    I think Adobe might disagree. Unless I'm misunderstanding you, which is reasonably likely.
