Lars,

you might looking at Acrobat Capture. Go to the Adobe website (
http://www.adobe.com ) and look  in the products vor Capture. You may also
ask in the Capture mailing list for first hand experience (subscribing by
sending "subscribe" to  mailto:capture-request -at- lists -dot- pdfzone -dot- com . It might
also be a good idea to get your first big batch processed by an experienced
service provider.

Hope, this can help.
