Docsmartz PDF Converter: Convert PDF to Word Conversion Software

Prof. Ric Uslaner (a political scientist here at Maryland) is raving about this program. According to the company's website: "Docsmartz PDF converter is a very easy-to-use tool to convert PDF files to Word or the .rtf format. This conversion software tool comes with multiple capabilities and you can extract images; convert PDF files in many languages; convert very large files, convert select pages; and choose the output format."

According to Ric, he has found it to be an effecitve tool for converting files with several images and graphs from Wordperfect to Word. Apparently, such Wordperfect documents normally do not convert well to Word; but, by first converting his Wordperfect document to PDF, he was able to make a flawless conversion from PDF to .doc using Docsmartz.

However, the software costs $20. Anyone know of freeware available that performs this function with comparable efficacy?
