Edit those PDF Files!

Have you ever downloaded a PDF file to use as a handout,  but you wanted to make some tweaks?  Before, unless you could fork out $450 for Adobe's Acrobat Pro, you were stuck with having to retype everything.  Now there's PDF to Word, which can, well, turn PDF files into editable Word documents. And it's free.

Not bad at all.
