[nobe-l] Converting PDFs

Hi Lara,

I use ABBYY Finereader nearly every day to convert PDFs to JAWS accessible word documents. It's pretty reliable, and not too expensive. Your employer should pay for it, I would think.

Good luck,
Tim

Subject: [nobe-l] Converting PDFs

Hello again,

Last week I was able to obtain the PDFs of the curriculum from which I teach. I know they need to be converted to either txt or doc files in order to read them from a braille display. I purchased PDF Suite 2015 in order to convert them but most of them remained in their picture format. In fact I only found one page which was converted to text.
Does anyone know how to convert a PDF to text?

Valete,
