Convert PDF files to Word with PDF to Word
We've covered PDF conversion tools in the past, but given the inconsistent performance of such tools, it's always worth pointing out potentially better ones. PDF to Word by Nitro is just such a tool, and given its claim as "The Most Accurate PDF-to-Word Converter", I had to give it a shot.
And you know what? It does remarkably well. Based on the test documents I tried, I really didn't run into any serious issues, other than the elephant in the room: uploading your documents to a third-party for conversion. I can't imagine using a service like this for real-world heavy lifting with business-related documents. I can't hand over my sensitive documents to a third-party.
However, for business users with the same issue, there's good news. Nitro's PDF-to-Word conversion technology is what powers their Nitro PDF Professional desktop application, and it has recently been marked down from $99 US to $69 US, with a free 14 day trial available.

This recently saved my a** at school when I had somehow lost my .doc for a 20 page report and needed to make some last minute changes. Luckily, I usually convert the files to pdf and send those to my professors since I have found that it is a more universal format. This worked like a charm!

Agreed on the elephant in the room here. Be smart.
Does this program take a couple of hours for anyone else? I've had to switch to http://www.pdfonline.com/pdf2word/index.asp for near immediate results. Neither service saves me the trouble of fixing page numbers and footnotes. Maybe the commercial versions are smater.

I've tried that, it never gives me the converted Word document back. Maybe too many people are in queue.
Recommend a desktop PDF to Word Converter, it can preserve the original text content, images, layouts and even hyperlinks, very fast and accurate. Even protected PDF can b e converted. Have a try.
