Hi Robert I don't have an answer but can have my sympathy. I've been looking for a quality pdf to text convertor for months and not turned up anything useful. I've tried many free programs which are poor. I too wanted a Python-only solution and tried pyPdf but that didn't work. Just today I download a trial version of a so called top-notch converter and it produced unfaithful text. Not sure what the answer is!

This seems to have the page as its smallest element of work, and what i need is a line by line process to go from .PDF format to Text. I don't think pyPDF will meet my needs but thank you for bringing it to my attention. Thanks, Robert Berman
