Hi Everyone

I have just been sent a document which I need to amend.  Unfortunately, it was 
first sent to me in PDF format which obviously I couldn't do anything with.  A 
colleague then scanned it with a PDF writer into Word format but it has come to 
me now with all sorts of strange boxes in it.  Could I ask if anyone knows a 
way to remove boxes etc without removing text?

My other question is, is there a way to copy the contents of the document into 
a fresh document without the formatting of the original, ie without these boxes 
etc?  

I am thinking it might be simpler just to re-type the thing.

Any help would be appreciated.
