Thank you all. I got it to work with the following
command:
gdal_translate -of GTiff -co "TILED=YES" -co "TFW=YES" C:\Copy\wp.pdf
C:\Copy\wpt.tif --config GDAL_PDF_DPI 300
It works pretty good. It converts a 11.1 MB PDF into a
96MB Tiff file that zips up into a 57 MB file. These files
are about 15 times bigger than the ones I am used to, but
they do have quite a bit of detail and don't have the
blank white space that a 7.5 minute topo has.
These Tiffs are very well georeferenced. I am pleased.

Thank you Randal and Tamas.
I downloaded and unzipped "release-1600-x64-gdal-mapserver.zip
<http://www.gisinternals.com/sdk/Download.aspx?file=release-1600-x64-gdal-mapserver.zip>"
(Compiled binaries in a single .zip package)
I see these files in 'C:\Copy\bin\gdal\apps':
gdaladdo.exe
gdalbuildvrt.exe
gdaldem.exe
gdalenhance.exe
gdalinfo.exe
gdallocationinfo.exe
gdalmanage.exe

gdal_grid.exe
gdal_rasterize.exe
gdal_translate.exe
nearblack.exe
ogr2ogr.exe

ogrtindex.exe
testepsg.exe
I went to this site:
http://www.staygeo.com/2013/03/convert-geopdf-maps-to-geotiff-with-gdal.html
and followed the instructions.
I typed:
C:\Copy\bin\gdal\apps>gdal_translate -of GTiff -co "TILED=YES" -co
"TFW=YES" C:\Copy\wpt.tif --config GDAL_PDF_LAYERS_OFF
"Map_Collar","Map_Frame.Projection_and_Grids" --config GDAL_PDF_DPI300
It gave an error:
ERROR 1: --config option given without a key and value argument.
I'm still working with it. I don't want tiled - I want the border
of the drawing included in the GeoTiff.
Thanks to Tamas Szekeres for maintaining this program.

You could usee the OSGEO installer for windows -
http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/osgeo4w-setup-x86_64.exe
You can use it to install a whole pile of software (QGIS etc) or just
gdal which I think is at 1.10 from this install.
