Hi Carol,

Thank you for your reply.

Both your reply and one from Yusuf earlier in the thread
wouldn't have worked, as I really need to keep the
photographs and diagrams contained in the .pdf file when
converting it, so that I can understand the relationship
between the text and the photographs and diagrams.

As a result of a comment from Eleanor Burke yesterday, I was
able to follow up the suggestion of acquiring Abbyy
FineReader version 10, and that seems to have allowed me to
access the document as I require and convert it into word
without losing the pictures or diagrams.
