Default Word formatting

Hi all
I have some manuals that i have scanned in and saved as PDF image file, i have then run it through OCR software. The result is i have a fairly editable document.
The document is 250+ pages in size, my problem is the formatting. The text is all grouped into hidden boxes. If i click on a section of text the box appears in grey, i can edit the text in this box within reason.

What i want is to release all the text and make it a 'free' text document without these blocks of text within the boxes.
Our works PC have XP and word 2003. I can send it to my own PC that has word 2010 on it.
