PDF is not Word's native format. It is the native format of Adobe Acrobat. For 100% viewing accuracy, please open your files in Acrobat Reader.

PDFs converted to Word format normally need some work to make them look like the original PDF. The amount of work will depend on the complexity of the PDF.
