PDF to DOC conversion

hey guys,

do you guys know of a GOOD product that will cleanly convert Adobe PDF files to MS Word DOC files?

most shareware is garbage....so i would not mind buying something that works.

thanks

I believe there is a tool in adobe that allows you to select the the text you want. Then you can copy and paste the stuff you want into a word document.
