What are some methods to merge content from 2 pages into one page?

Hi everyone! I've used Acrobat for years at work to convert email from our clients before uploading them to our database. Now that I'm working from home and have some extra time I want to finally make the process better. A major problem we have is when we export our emails from gmail, it does all sorts of ugly formatting nonsense such as making multiple copies of .jpeg attachments that push text several pages down. I've looked online for ways to fix this in Gmail to no avail so I'm now hoping to just edit the PDF's prior to uploading.

 

What I want to be able to do is take the text that is strewn across 2 or more pages and paste it into the first page so it can all be read at once. I'd also like to be able to delete these extra copies of images that aren't necessary (sometimes they're so large they get quartered and spread over 4 pages which is useless). If I could move the text off of those pages I could just delete the whole page rather than trying to delete the image segments.

 

Sorry if this is at all confusing, I just wanted to give context to better explain what I need to do. I saw a few answers here but they were several years old and my version of Adobe doesn't have things like Tools > Pages > Crop. Thanks in advance!

Try this:

Convert the PDF to Word, edit the Word document, and convert from Word to PDF.
