I have WordPerfect X4, which does a questionable job of (natively)
converting pdf's, and from which one could then copy and paste the
questionable results into a Word document.

Has anyone been down this road before (trying to find something better than
what WordPerfect does, and that works directly with Word)?  Or maybe someone
can offer words of advice (or condolences...)?

I am aware of these, but haven't tested any of them (recommendations or pans
welcome):
