The "pdftotext" application (part of the "xpdf" package) is a real blessing; it needs some post-editing but still gets better results with extracting the contents than the very own Adobe "service" to strip this idiot formatting.
Question now: Is there any "ps-to-text" converter existing which would do this with postscript/ghostscript files ?
