um, use Save As. :)

No, actually, that isn't the whole story. There is a free plug in for 
Acrobat, available from the Adobe site, called Save as XML. But it 
actually allows you to save pdfs as HTML 3.20 or 4.01, or XHTML or XML 
1.00. It works with the most recent versions of Acrobat and has recently 
been revised (though it is called a Beta, it has been called that for 
over a year.)

At any rate it is one way to go.
