Re: pdf documents



Hi,

In addition to pdftotext, I can also recommend pstotext (in Debian it's in its own package).

pstotext outputs to standard output by default. You can save the output by either using > to redirect to a file, or by using the -output command line option.

I have both pstotext and pdftotext installed here. Results seem to vary as to which is better and you may want to try both if a document is proving difficult to read and see which gives the best results.

Geoff.
