Will this method work if you only have MS Word and no other programs?

  I don't know how to read PDF files and I see them a lot when trying to 
research something on the Web.  Even my daughters' school calendar is now set 
up that way so I can't read it.  I am using jaws 7 and 6.20 depending, and XP 
home.  Is there a way to convert PDF documents to plain text so I can use 
normal Jaws commands?  If not, is there some sort of Adobe or PDF tutorial 
available?  Thanks.
