Hi lads,

technical question: is it possible to extract text from PDF? From PDF to
txt.

Using "Adobe Reader 8.1.2" I could simply select text with my lmb,
and than paste the text to wherever I want.

Or I could do a ctrl-a and select copy from the popup window (note that
the cursor must be over some selected text). Than I went to eg. Kate and use paste from the popup window and the
entire text was pasted.

Manon.
