OK, I give up.

35 bucks later, I still haven't been able to find a conversion tool that will take a PDF file as input and yield an editable .docx file as output.

I've already JFGI'd it to death, and all I keep coming up with is trial programs that limit you to a few pages (I have 231 I need to convert) or that turn the PDF into images, then paste 'em into a Word document. I'm so POed at that little trick that I could spit nails - that's the one that just cost me 35 bucks.

So - any of youse guys have ANY ideas, short of cut 'n paste or save as... text that could convert a 231p PDF file into a user-editable MS Word .rtf or .docx format?
