I need to transform PDF to text (ascii) ... How can I do that ? I opened a pdf file with acroread and selected all (just the 1st page) and clicked on copy in the Edit drop-down menu. Then I tried to paste into a OpenOffice or a StarOffice text document but in both cases the message was : "the requested clipboard is not available" and nothing got pasted even by selecting an HTML document ...
Which version of Open Office (and Suse) are you using? In the 2.0 beta version that came with 9.3 this works without problems. Alternatively (there always is another way) you could try to use a text editor like kate. That should also work. Regards, -- Jos van Kan www.josvankan.tk
