Other than Adobe itself, Is there a legal program that converts a document to PDF and also back to Word? I am trying to avoid buying the full Adobe program to save cash. Thanks.

I don't know of any Freeware that is worthy of mentioning. But if $30.00USD is in the budget take a look at Foxit PDF Creator.There is also a try before you buy option so you can see if it will work for your needs.
The Internet is so big, so powerful and pointless that for some people it is a complete substitute for life.

I use Nuance's PDF Converter 5 (may be higher version now)
It runs pretty cheap, I think around $30 and it does a really good job. Digital created PDF's (say you print to a pdf creator from MS Word, etc) convert back to .doc or other formats with almost 100% formatting intact.
Scanned documents that become PDFs are what are harder. Nuance's OCR (optical character recognition) is pretty well, and even retains table formatting when converting to .doc
Give it a try, I think there's a full-functioning demo.
