Hi,

In addition to pdftotext, I can also recommend pstotext (in Debian it's in 
its own package).

pstotext outputs to standard output by default.   You can save the output 
by either using > to redirect to a file, or by using the -output command 
line 
option.

I have both pstotext and pdftotext installed here.  Results seem to vary as 
to which is better and you may want to try both if a document is proving 
difficult to read and see which gives the best results.

Geoff.
