As has already been suggested, you can use pdftotext, but I'd suggest rethinking the whole process. pdf2text can't handle images, and simply converts the pdf to a text file. If you're creating the documents in the first place, why don't you simply create text files to start with instead of creating pdf's. -- Gary Stainburn This email does not contain private or confidential material as it may be snooped on by interested government parties for unknown and undisclosed purposes - Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act, 2000
