Converting Adobe Acrobat

When coping from Adobe Acrobat and pasting into Word, the margins are very narrow. If I search and replace the returns, it takes the paragraphs marks out too. This is a lot of added editing. Anybody have any good ideas?

This is no how it works for me. Pasting should have no impact on
margins. I guess that you could try using Edit/Paste Special and use
the unformattted text.

Since you have Adobe Acrobat (and not Adobe Reader), why not save the
file as RTF format, then open that RTF file in Word and copy/paste from
there (or use that as your doc).

Thanks for the info. It is "Reader" -- sorry for the bad info. Your info led me to the "drag and drop" between programs idea in the Word help. That worked great! Thanks again.
