If you have Kerzweil, you could convert it to a txt document.  If you don't, 
you can send it to me, or the address of the document, and I'll convert it for 
you.  My address is:
bbinc@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

  I would be surprised if this were the case but will email the authors to

  Might it also be associated with the multi-level protection within
  Acrobat distiller?
