Hi J, Do you have Openbook installed on your computer? If so you can use Openbook to read the book & convert it into a text file or Word document. You will also need Adobe installed to open the PDF file. Here are the steps: 1. With the book / PDF file highlighted press enter to open. You might hear something like empty document or graphic. 2. Press, Control + P, as if you were going to print something & the print dialogue will open. 3. Arrow down to the, Freedom Import Printer, option & press enter. This will get Openbook started on scanning the file. Give it a little bit of time, depending on the size of the file, & Openbook should start reading the file. Now you can save it in whatever format you choose. HTH Take Care. Mike This email was sent from my, iGoDodgersBarstool.
