Graham, I have a paid version of Acrobat, but am stymied how to
convert. I only see an option for converting INTO PDF, not OUT.
Using my usual method for copying PDF text, I get small boxes, not
text, for everything except the address when I paste it into word.
Usually - I can copy pdf text and paste it into word just by using the
reader itself, but this particular web page apparently has locked
their pdf form for printing only. Is there a specific ng where I can
ask about this? It's never happened to me before.

TIA
