Nope. The editing of PDFs can only be done with a PDF creation package of
which there are several options available to you, the best-known is Adobe
Acrobat though, at +/- £250 isn't within the reach of everyone's pocket.
There are more affordable, if less flexible, options. PDF995
(www.pdf995.com) is one which is highly regarded, as is PDF X-Change
(www.docu-track.com). As these are shareware (30 day trial and documents are
watermarked 'unregistered') and considerably cheaper than Acrobat, you can
expect less in the way of functionality, though they are still good enough
for most home/SOHO users.

This is usually what Amethyst the bint of MS NGs would reply to one asking non-XP questions:

"This is an XP help newsgroup, and not a help site for those with Word, or Adobe Acrobat questions. Those questions should be frowarded to the appropriate NGs for answers."

Seems you're a ****ing inconsistent **** when riding the asses of those who post irrelevant questions, but then you violate that by then replying to what you would call an irrelevant question for this particular NG!

Not directly, but this may help you: in Adobe Acrobat Reader,
click the select text tool and use it to select the text you want
to edit. Then press Ctrl-C to copy the text and paste it into
Word.
