CNET Editors' review
Converting documents is relatively straightforward with PDF2Word, but it's not as convenient as it could be. The program handles simple documents well, and those with complex formatting--numerous images, columns, borders--render more or less correctly. We got the best results when we selected the Use Text option. The five-page limitation of the trial version makes it difficult to evaluate conversion speed, and settings are not extensive. On the plus side, you can choose the range of pages to convert for big documents. However, you can't set the output folder for the converted documents--a real inconvenience. The interface is not handy, either; it doesn't add a command to your right-click menu in Explorer. PDF2Word does its job, but many users will want more features than they'll find here.

"Very Acceptable solution"
Version: PDF2Word 1.6
Pros
After a few non-responsive trials, I found I could get the software to work after I shrunk the title of the PDF file and the target Word file. It also had formatting challenges with the columns on the source PDF file, but all in all it performed its task. Not bad for a free program. It did not ask for money or any registration.
