Many cad and drawing programs will open PDF. Corel is pretty good for that sort
of conversion. If you can figure out what program was used to generate it, you
might even try that. I've been able to open PDFs in Adobe Illustrator that even
have all the layers intact. Of course, the PDF could have nothing but a bitmap
in it, so you'd be back to de-rasterizing it.
