With the full Acrobat product, you can make an attempt to convert the PDF to 
MS Word format. Depending on how structurally complex the document it, and 
what the original source authoring software was, this will be more or less 
successful -- usually less. If the conversion does replicate the original 
format fairly well, though, you can edit the Word file and then re-PDF it (or 
just leave it in Word for your own uses).

In my corner of the professional tech pubs universe, however, this conversion 
(and any other conversion of Adobe formats to Microsoft formats) works poorly 
enough that it is not really useful. YMMV.
