Bill,

Yes, you could do that, but you would lose all the style-name information, possibly get a lot of extra hard line endings, add all sorts of extraneous typographic problems (tight and loose lines, etc., that are hard to clear manually). It might work for a simple enough document, but so far I have not been thrilled with the PDF to RTF conversion, whereas I have used the PageMaker RTF export function to great advantage.
