Hi,
A co-worker e-mailed me this question, and I can't find anything helpful in
the Acrobat Exchange help file.
"Does anyone know of an application that can export text cleanly out of a
PDF file or save a PDF in different formats? Any help on the subject would
be appreciated. Thanks!"
According to the help file, you can export as EPS... however, I don't know
how to get it from EPS into anything usable in this case. I think he wants
something like a Word, TXT, or RTF format.
