Aren't the sources of Ghostview available??? Maybe it's possible to convert

Hello,
Any OCR software that generates PDF?

My only problem is that Adobe Acrobat is installed

Maybe it's possible for the dutch people to take their manuals to the
Tilburg fair and convert all the manuals to PDF on the fair!
It's also possible to put al the files on msx2.com becausse we have enough
space on the server. (a few gig)

Actually I think it would be nicer to convert the manuals to a popular
document
format rather than scanning them. For example, HTML, PDF or Latex.
