Ok. I went to an online service to convert the PDF to a word document. Zamzar was no help. They converted it to an image file. J I found another place, pdftoword.com that did a good job of converting the file and it appears to work on the user's PC. I logged into their PC from remote and downloaded the file from their email (I emailed the converted file to them) and opened it in Word. It got way past the point the Word file I created locked up, so I think I'm good! Gonna have to remember that site, though! J

Part of that involves filling out a bunch of paperwork. This is one of those files that needs to be filled out and it's more of a "template" that we need to modify to fit our organization than just a straight form. He was trying to use Adobe Acrobat (I think the full version) and it wouldn't let him make changes, so I used MY copy of Acrobat to export the whole thing to a Word 97-2003 file. Obviously not everything exported perfectly (some tables didn't make it intact.) I can open it just fine in Word 2007, but his Word 2000 chokes on it. John-AldrichTile-Tools From: Andrew S.

It keeps locking up his computer, apparently due to the file size. Anyone know how to make multiple smaller documents from a single Word document?
