[nabs-l] PDF to Doc

[Heather Field]

Hello,
The service is called. Robo braille.
To have a pdf file converted, do the following.
Send an email to:
convert at robobraille.org

In the subject put the format of the file you want the pdf file converted 
into. So, for example, if you want a Microsoft Word file, just put, .doc in 
the subject. There are a bunch of options that it will tonvert files into so 
you may want to visit the site and read their documentation.

Then, attach the pdf file you want converted and send it to Robo braille. It 
will return in a few minutes converted. The converted file will have a new 
name which starts with the letters, rb. So, when you save the new file you 
need to rename it.

There is a limit on the size of files which it will convert so, if it sends 
back a message that the file was too large to convert, you must break the 
pdf file into smaller files. So, for example, it won't scan a whole textbook 
all at once. However, if you had each chapter separately, it would probably 
scan each one for you.

Hope this is helpful.
Regards,
Heather

Hi All,

Does anyone remember the name/email address of the service that you can
Email PDF files to, and have them converted to Doc files?

Thanks,
