Problems with pdf files.

[Thomas Ward]

Hi, list. Have a problem here. It is with the pdf files I have.

some pdf files will convert with no problem using pdftotext, but I have some
Linux books from Sam's which simply will not convert. Trying to do so in
Adobe Acrobat  Reader didn't help.
when I inquired about it Sam's said they did that for copy protection. Is
there anyway to force a pdf file into text when it has been secured?

I'm getting frustrated because although Sam's will give me ebooks they
insist on pdf format only.
