Sounds as if a block of text was selected and copied from a .pdf file, and
pasted into a document written in Word 07. Unfortunately, unless you have
Adobe Acrobat Elements there isn't much you can do to mark-up .pdf text .
But you can
1, select the paragraphs you want, and click copy.
2. open a new Word 07 doc. Paste your selection --it will no longer look
formatted. You have to tweak it in Word to make it make look like the rest
of the book/paper (font, size, layout, etc.).
3 .Copy this newly formatted paragraph
4. Go back to your Table of Contents. Delete the .pdf "block" of text and
paste the newly-minted paragraph , now written in Word 07.
It's not very elegant but it works.

Subject: Stumped by Word2003 to PDF to Word2007
All,
I'm stumped and under the clock: a colleague took a Word03 document,
converted it to PDF, then converted it to Word07.
The document is composed of anchored paragraphs in a Table of Contents
document; it is not allowing her to edit (i.e., inserting bullets). Any
ideas about the anchors?
