Sorry if someone else replied and I missed it. I don't know how to do this with pdfedit, but you could alternatively try the pdftotext tool from xpdf, or pdftohtml if that is more suitable for your purpose.

I have a bash script which at some point should translate a PDF file to plain text. Let's say we have foobar.pdf and want to convert it to foobar.txt. I can do this from the GUI but I'm unable to figure out what the command should be to do the same from the command line. Yes, I read the docs, manpage, wiki, archives, but still no luck. Yor help would be very much appreciated. Details: PDFedit 0.4.2 from the SuSE-11.1 packman repo.
