TinyPDF seems bogus. I installed it, but it actually installed a trial version of Magic PDF, and this watermarks each page until you pay for it. I suggest this article is removed as TinyPDF seems to be a total con.

PDF to Word doesn’t seem to do what it says on the box, as the result isn’t a true Word document complete with text and images, it’s just a full page image of the PDF document pasted into a Word document.

it´s a false program.
It´s realy Magic PDF and it´s a wast of time installing this.

Hmm…yeah TinyPDF looks to be broken (i.e. commercialised).

Take a look at doPDF (http://www.dopdf.com/) . It's small, free and does what TinyPDF used to do. :)
