I am trying to paste a PDF document into a MS Word document Appendix. The PDF document has pictures (graphics). Also, I have executed a "Select All" and been able to "Paste" the text into the document, but the pasted text is very messy and to time constrained to fix. Basically, I would need to re-format the entire document. Also, the Graphics are rotated.
Any help would be great.

This is how it is. How well formatting of a pdf is retained in a new format, greatly depends on how the PDF was created and from which application.

An alternative work flow would be to save the PDF as a RTF or doc file using a full version of Acrobat.

You could also search online for any 3rd party PDF to Word converters.
