    I'm no expert, prehaps Google will tell all, but you can save the PDF as a Text Document in Acrobat and then place that in the Word Templates Folder ?

    Sounds easy enough .......

      If you just want the images from the pdf, then take a screenshot of it (alt-printscreen), then use fireworks to create a new image and paste the screenshot in.

      You can then crop it to take out the appropriate bits, export them as graphics, and insert them into word.

          If you had adobe acrobat (full)
          Open the pdf.
          Do file / save as / word document.

          But you don't so..

          Extract any graphics using reader or illustrator.
          Then recreate the header manually in word.

          I'll convert it to word for you if you like. Pm me.

            CHEERS guys, after much arsing about i opened it in illustrator, saved it as an Illustrator file, sliced it in Fireworks, compiled the template as images in openoffice (tonnes better than MSWord) then converted the template to an MSWord doc.

            What a waste of a day that was, just for a sodding letterhead.

            Man i need a new job.............
