hi May,
To have PDF files converted to text files free of charge, send an
email to conv...@robobraille.org. On the subject line, specify
the format you want your file in. Attach your PDF document and
your converted file will be emailed to you momentarily.
HTH,
Ezzie

Hi May,
On the mac, if you need this often, then abbyy fine reader is a
good solution. Its interface has a combobox where you input
where your image is coming from, so either a scanner or a file,
and the next combo box lets you decide what to convert it to. It
is that simple, but it does cost 80 dollars. Otherwise, I would
ask a friend running windows to quickly do it for you, using
pdf2txt. That is quick. On the mac, I don't yet know of a free
and easy program to do just that.
Hth,
Paul.

Good morning. Is there a way to save pdf files as text files? I
thought there was a way, but I cna't seem to find it or remember
how. Having one of those days. Really think i should go back to
bed and if I didn't have loads to do before classes tomorrow, I
would, lol.
