AFAIK, you can't open a PDF in word without an external program.  I've 
used Omnipage Pro (not cheap).  It even may be impossible if the PDF is 
secured from copying with a password.

With an unsecured PDF, I "copied" the PDF in Acrobat with Ctrl-A, 
Ctrl-C, but it lost all formating when I pasted it into a blank Word doc.
