Hi
If the PDF document allows it, try saving it as a text document. I have
found this helpful a number of times.
God bless,

Hello Riana,
PDF is generally speaking, protected document format, however some PDFs
allow to be copied to the clipboard. Please try to select and copy
the content of the PDF file to the clipboard by going to EDIT -> COPY. Paste
than the content to an open
Word document, please note that even if you are able to do that, the
formaitting of the word document may be different.
Regards,
Nikolay
