Todd Goatley suggested:
Try Adobe Reader. You can save the doc in text, then open it in OO.
Thank you for your response, but:
Adobe Acrobat Reader is a Windows Program
There is a Linux version of Adobe Reader, I've used it for years. For
Adobe Acrobat however, there is no Linux version as far as I know, but
that was not what was suggested.

, and
Saving to a text file (equivalent to extracting the text) means that
I lose both the graphics and the rest of the page formatting, which
Is not really what I was hoping for. I was hoping for a faithful
reproduction of the pdf file in an editable format.
In Windows (a now obsolete OS) Solid Converter PDF does a good job
of doing that, but I have not been able to run under Wine (I'm using
TheBat! version 3.99 - an email client for win - to write this with
- WineHQ informer me that version 4 won't run, but v. 3.x will).
Other commercial pdf editors/creators include Foxit but I was hoping
an opensource app was available (Ghostscript will extract to text
but as I mentioned, that's not what I have in mind).
In any case, than you for your response.

OO's ability to create pdf files is a valuable asset.
However, the need frequently arises to convert pdf files to a
editable format.
