saving formatting from pdf to word 97

I have a guy on a remote location who can only email .pdf files that then have to be converted to word 97 docs. The formatting stays fine when copied one page at a time but the docs are huge, include architecural drawings and tables and when they are copied to clipboard - the formatting goes haywire. This includes text turning white, tables spilling over 30 pages etc... Currently the organisation only runs to the free Acrobat reader rather than the full version.

Is there any way to do it apart from a page at a time and graphic by graphic and will buying the full version fix the problem anyway?

Cheers and Thanks
