can I import a PDF file into Numbers?

I have a PDF file that is in column and row format but not as user friendly as I would like. Is there a way to import the file into Numbers so that I can add columns, change apperance etc.? Not sure if this is significant, but I am using '08 version of Numbers.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.4.10)

I do mean software. I have not used one of those utilities. I found a link to one on apple.com that says it is shareware and will turn a pdf into xls, which is importable to Numbers. I don't trust downloading stuff from sites I don't know but I tend to trust the Apple site. It's up to you, though. I did not download it to see how it works. I wouldn't be able to tell anyway because I don't have the document to convert.
