Hi Charlene, I have used Solid PDF Tools converter for converting PDF to MS Word. This has yielded excellent results in terms of retaining the formatting, table and figure conversion, as well as editability. However, i am not sure for large docs extending up to 2000 pages, as is your case.

I agree with the other two posters. Go from your source document to Word. It's much much easier. And then run from this client. The problems of maintaining the drawing in an updated format, and 2000 pages with, I assume, an index and table of contents, would be very, very daunting if done in
