I had someone redo my resume and they sent it back to me
in a zip file on "Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0".
I need to transfer this info into a "Microsoft Word" file,
so I can sent my resume out to companies that are only
set up for "Microsoft Word".
Can this be done? How do I go about doing this?

Thank you,
Calvin Bentley

You will probably find that more companies people are equipped to read an
acrobat file that a Word file.

If you wanted to, you could include a URL in your email that would take
people to a site from which they could down load the Acrobat Reader.

Here's one

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/alternate.html

Alternatively, ask the person to send it to you as a Word file.

While software is available to do the conversion from .PDF to .DOC, you may
loose some formatting in the process.
