So, are you able to edit the word doc after it's converted?

I tried it with the 11-11-2008 Council Agenda contents:
http://www.berwyn-il.gov/pdf/MtgAgendas/2008/20081111-CouAgenda.pdf

...didn't work.  Imported it into Word as a picture.

It likely has to be imported from Word Doc, which our Council Agendas are not (they're scanned in).

You can tell by the original PDF - if it was imported in native format, you can copy and paste directly from the PDF file, no utilities needed. 
If you can copy individual words/sentences/paragraphs this utility will probably convert it to an editable format.

Yep.  Here's one that worked (scungili's Zenith DTV Tuner Spec Sheet PDF):

I copied the following from the Word Doc version of it:


8.5" x 1.8" x 6"


Cool.
