Have you tried highlighting the text and copying it to Word?

best way is this nifty free program ...

sometimes it takes forever to send the darn file to you though... one time is was 5 mins another time it was like 3 days.

Oooooh, there are ugly ways to take a PDF template you can't edit and appear to add text to it ... one way is to mock it up in Word by doing screen caps of the pages and paste them into Word, then add the text as text boxes in the appropriate places.

Sounds like that free editor isn't much of an editor but a document creator. I create PDFs from Word by using a free print driver (PrimoPDF) that creates the files as if I were printing a hard copy.

download a copy of adobe acrobat if you have the bandwidth and time.
