Acrobat has an "export as text" function which makes this easier - save to RTF or Word format. If you open this in OpenOffice v 2.3 or greater, you should be able to export it as MediaWiki format. (Does this work smoothly?)

Are images saved automatically during file export? It appears so for exporting to HTML/XML, at least. Do any of the formats include tags to indicate image location?
