For serious work it pays to stick to the stable version. It is a bit  
late to backtrack now.  However if you can take your present pdf 
file, save it as text from acrobat Reader, and then flow the text 
file  into 1.3.3.12 or 1.3.3.13 you may be able to save your project. 
It depends of course on the complexity of your layout.
