I saw this product on the web a few months ago - then it disappeared before
I got around to downloading it.
Now I can't find it, and sure wish I could! If you do please let me know.
There is (was?) a website that will do this for you...you send the .pdf file
and their parser sends you back a text file.
It worked great for me when I wanted to quote excerpted text from a white
paper.
I haven't used it lately, but I will see if I can dig it up. In the meantime
try to Google "convert pdf" and see what you find.
Have fun,
Ed
