It is usually very difficult to edit PDF files.

You can try bringing up Word and copy/paste-ing the PDF into a new
document, edit that, and save it, but it probably will be a bit klunky if
it works at all.

I'm surprised that that would be an option at all.  Are you using Adobe
Acroread/Acrobat to save the PDF?  I could be wrong, but I would doubt
that an Adobe product would save to a Macrosoft format correctly.

I seem to remember Noelle and me struggling with editing PDF files when
she had that temporary summer job the year before last.
