How come when I post text from a PDF into an AppleWorks document the font defaults to Arial and the text is not longer justified? It's easy to change the font, of course, but redoing all the paragraphing can take ages.

Unfortunately, when you copy the text from a PDF, you do just that - copy the text without formatting. Then you have to reformat everything yourself. I do not know of anything which allows you to copy the text and the accompanying formatting also.
