Another method: http://dcs.nac.uci.edu/~strombrg/pdftopdb.html It converts each page to an image, builds an HTML document that shows all the images, and converts the HTML to .pdb. It's not great for text-heavy conversions (you end up scrolling around a lot), but I've found it works well for diagrams. I keep dreaming someday there will be a .pdf to .pdb conversion process that will do normal plucker text but also provide a link to view a high res bitmap version of the same text, formatted as originally intended. _______________________________________________ plucker-list mailing list plucker-list@rubberchicken.org http://lists.rubberchicken.org/mailman/listinfo/plucker-list
