Saving PDF as Word .doc or .rtf portrait landscape weirdness

Question

Hello all,
I have a PDF that was originally created in Word (by someone, not sure who) and I
have been asked to modify the text a bit. I began doing that in Acrobat 7.0.9 -
but kept running into font encoding issues, and I'm almost dangerously clueless
when using Acrobat so I elected to save the PDF out of Acrobat as a Word document
.doc -
The problem is that upon opening the Word document, the page orientation has
flipped on its side - both the text and the pages are flipped 90 degrees now to
Landscape mode.
Any ideas why this happened or how to fix it?
Thanks!!
Tim

Thanks John... that's what I needed to confirm I guess in my own mind at least, <br />that I would need to edit the original file in Word, not expect Acrobat to build <br />me a perfect Word document on its own.<br />So I ended up doing that.... editing it in Word, then building a new PDF from <br />there.<br /><br />Thanks a bunch for your help/advice.<br /><br />Tim<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><[email protected]> wrote in message <br />news:[email protected]..<br />> You might look here <a href=http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b4fc08><br />><br />> And read the 1st answer to the question, by steve foxall
