For those looking to convert a Word document to a PDF file, there are a large number of solutions out there. But how about vice versa? There haven’t been many programs courageous sufficient to try and convert a PDF to a Word document.

One program that has stepped up to the plate is PDF to Word Converter 1.1, a free tool that converts a PDF back to a Word document for editing, removing and adding elements, and more.

The program is a small download (about 1 MB), and installation is straightforward. The user interface is straightforward as well: you choose the PDF you wish to convert, choose where you want the Word document to be saved, and you’re ready to go. Options

include the number of pages to convert (you can choose all or portions of the document), choice of a default font, and the option to retain shapes and images.

In our analysis, PDF to Word converter worked flawlessly, quickly and neatly converting a 5 page PDF file in about five seconds.

PDF to Word converter is a nice desktop solution, though it is limited to one conversion type. whether you can get online, you might be better served with Zamzar, the online file conversion tool with support for a huge amount of conversion types.
