Can't you just use Acrobat Professional 8? It translates the PDF to Word as text insets, which you then change to pure text. It works for me.

RE: Convert PDF to DOC or FM
Try using Nuance's PDFConverter4 ( http://www.nuance.com/pdfconverter/) for converting PDF to MS Word. It's not perfect, but it does a reasonably good job.
