SMART PDF - TERRIBLE SOFTWARE

I have been wanting to get some PDF to Word document converters for a while but I've been reluctant to spend the money. It is so so dissappointing to have downloaded this software last night so that I could change my novel PDF into Word for editing.

The PDF was created in InDesign 2 which has been 'buggy' for me with paragraph and character styles being inconsistent. Besides, when I edit, it was a pest to go back to the individual chapters that fed into the master document.

I've contacted the software company requesting my money back. I hope this works out. It will teach me to be patient - I had orginally been meaning to buy the latest ScanSoft from Amazon but been unwilling to wait for delivery of the CD.
