Can you open PDF documents in Word 2002 and then save them as Word docs?

No.

You can install a PDF to Word converter. Word will use this converter to
open the document. Microsoft does not supply such a converter.

This is one such:
http://www.scansoft.com/pdfconverter/

http://www.solidpdf.com/

Stand alone: Convert to Word file, open in word.
http://www.verypdf.com/

There are others.

Yes.

You have to get Adobe Acrobat Pro 6 (which I have). It puts an option in the
Open File dialog box, for pdf files. Once they're opened in Word, you can
save them in .doc format.

doc. back to PDF doc. ?

Thank you

If you have PDF writing software - there are several types linked from the
favourites page of my web site.

There seem to be several free programs for converting Word files into pdf
(eg pdf995) but are there similar free programs to convert pdf files into
Word files?

I don't know about free - you'll have to do some digging at Google - but for
unprotected PDFs there is http://www.verypdf.com/ and good OCR software like
Finereader will do the trick. You can even grab the text using a screen
capture utility like SnagIt.
