Create Adobe PDF Online: easily convert and create PDF documents
Adobe has come up with something new... a subscription version of their Adobe Acrobat PDF creator. For $9.99 a month or $99.99 a year, you can create PDF files right from your desktop through your list of printers.
I'm not convinced that Adobe's subscription service offers many more features than the free PDF creator that I use, pdf995, but if you are interested in getting a higher level of technical support for your investment, it may be just the thing. Plus, through a subscription service, you don't need to worry about upgrading your software when the next version comes out.
If you need the additional features that Adobe Acrobat Professional offers (see the features at Adobe's site) and the $449.00 price tag is worth it to you, it's easy to justify the investment.

In your pdf995 creator can you also de-pdf a document into WORD?

P.S. And if so, how?

It is possible to create a Word or html version of your pdf document if you have installed the optional pdfEdit995 software. Find out more at http://www.pdfedit995.com/index.html. Once you have it installed, the "Text" tab in the software gives you the options for text conversion.
In addition, Adobe Acrobat Reader (at least the 7.x version that I use) allows you to select text and then copy it to your clipboard and paste it into a Word document. You'll lose much of the formatting that way, but pdfEdit995 also does not retain all the formatting, just the text.

It seems that the best option for maintaining formatting in pdfEdit995 is to convert to html - it converts images and formatting, but it seems to translate it to an image rather than to text that can be selected.

But if you are no longer able to save a PDF file that you find on the web without subscribing to this service, isn't this really a disservice--charging you a $100/year for something you used to get for free!??!?
