there is a command-line tool xpdf, you can convert pdf to txt with drag &
drop on pdftotxt.exe

John said:The main problem I keep running into is that, like saving to text from
within Acrobat Reader, separate paragraph structure is almost always
lost when using such programs and the resulting text runs all together.
Having to go back through a say, 200 page document and recreate the
paragraph structure is very tedious and usually impossible.
PDF2TXT has that problem and others. I've downloaded XPDF and will give
it a try though. Hope it works.

FTR said:After some trying out I gave it up and bought FineReader 7. Gives
excellent results, also with tables which is usually the weak point of
the free programmes.
