There is another another possible solution that works for me when I get a PDF: FreeOCR

This free OCR software uses the Tesseract OCR engine. Tesseract OCR code was developed at HP Labs between 1985 and 1995 and is currently with Google. It is thought of as one of the most accurate open source OCR engines available. Works very well for me both for PDFs and images.

Maurice,

Another alternative to the last two options is to "save the PDF as a text
file from the free Adobe Reader XI.

Cheers,

Thanks to Brian & Rory for their help.  They gave 4 answers: find the
original DOC/ODT/etc file, use the PDF-to-DRAW facility of AOO, scan the
PDF, or hammer on the keyboard.

Thanks again!

How do I convert a PDF to ODT (or DOC) so that I can edit it?
