FX, perhaps this is a silly question, but in doing it as you recommend is it possible to preserve any of the .pdf formatting? I tried this with a bank statement and the result was a long OpenOffice document with everything jammed against the left margin. All of the columns of numbers that displayed so nicely in the .pdf were dismembered.
The resulting text document was unusable.
Is there a way to copy the .pdf into text yet preserve the document so it can be read? If not, what's the use of converting the .pdf into a text document?
As I mentioned earlier try opening the pdf with Kword, the formatting will be retained to a fair degree depending how much graphics is in the file.
The following is a chunk of what I get by opening or importing the pdf file into kword: ÐgfihFjWkmlmh?nDopkpqsrfdjtnDjtfiu#h?kmh@kvlxw#yRc©Î?ÏúÁÃÂ?Ù?À?ÂsÊ?ÁcÓ?ÀlÌlÂ?Ïúë0ÁÃÂ? À#cCÍðÁ©Ó?Ó½ÀlÍ¢ÊËÎ?ÒvÀqë?À?ÂËÀ?ϸÊêµÂË Regards, maura
