    The slanted 'words' appear to be a series of independent rotated textboxes (one for each letter), carefully spaced. In Word 2010, at least, you can only select them one character at a time. Evidently, this is the result of the pdf conversion process used.

    Is there any way to OCR the slanted words?
    (e.g. by Office, other software etc.)

    Sure you could use OCR, but there's no guarantee you'd get the results you want - whatever they are. It all depends on what OCR software you use.
