Hi all,
Thanks for all the interesting ideas.
I have no really functional stand alone Linux box.  Or more correctly I 
have  a Linux box that I still wish to make functional.  I will see how 
many of these ideas  exists here at shellworld.
Still, I found an amazing way to convert which surprised me.
If you have access to the lynx browser, and have a gmail account, 
google will automatically convert the pdf files into html.
so I have for example mailed myself one of the pdf files containing the 
PowerPoint files.  and I am present in lynx with the "view as html." 
While I am not sure how full proof this would be with something  more 
complex, it is doing the job so far for me.
In act I just scored a 100 on my first class exam smiles.
Thanks again,
Kare
