RJ --

Kurzweil is expensive, if you don't already have it.  The ABBYYY Fine
Reader is cheaper than Kurzweil; probably around $400.  If you have
Adobe professional, there is an internal OCR that works pretty well.

I know there are some free websites that will convert PDFs to text, but
I haven't used any of these.
