Convert the file to a word document. Loads of free ones out there that will do it online for you. Just google it.

If all else fails you can print screen it then crop it in MS paint.

unless I misunderstood your query, the little camera icon in acrobat allows you to copy parts of your pdf doc, for pasting elsewhere.... (little camera on a dotted box, its called snapshot)

Worth making sure you've got the latest version of Adobe Reader, they added some useful stuff in version X onwards and it doesn't automatically upgrade from version 9.
