I made a text logo in MS Word 2010 using their "Text Effects". Now I want export it to Photoshop for editing, but you can't copy-paste. How can I do this? Any ideas?

I tried print-screening, but it leaves white edges all around the text. I can go through with an eraser and erase all the little white specs but it gets messy. How can I get a clean transparent background?

Here's a link to the image so you have an idea of what I'm trying to cut out:

In Word try...

File > Save as > Adobe PDF

then open the PDF inside Photoshop and the background should be transparent.
