cutting and pasting from a pdf - both text and image - is fairly easy using the tools/utils from xpdf.
pdfimages - will dump all the graphics contained in the pdf, then you can put them wherever you like. pdftoppm - will dump each selected page as a graphic(ppm) - convert/crop as desired.
pdftotext/pdftohtml - well... they do what they say.The tools available with xpdf alone are a good reason for us to use/support xpdf rather than acroread. I for one would hate to have them disappear.
