I ended up buying the new acrobat x and it works great with converting the PDF to MS word document. It has an upgraded OCR program in the new version that switches it over almost flawlessly. Only problem that I came across is that some of the documents that was generated showed a picture of the file almost like a jpeg that you could edit some of the tables but other then that it work great. One more thing it also allows a automated batch process with the action wizard to make the process faster. If you have Acrobat 9 it does it but it not all that great.

Here is the steps for Acrobat 9.

Go to "File"
"Export"
"Word Document" or "HTML"
Then the save as box will come up.
