Off topic -- Mobile accessibility V Talx

[Steve Holmes]

Interesting,  I just sent a PDF doc to pdf2html at access.adobe.com and never
got a response! I sent the file over last weekend and nothing yet! When I
tried to open it in that God forsaken Acrobat reader for winblows, it locked
the machine every time!  <HMMM> maybe I locked up the Adobe machine:)  Goes
to show how louzy PDF really is!

Hey that's cool you can request a braille copy of the manual. In terms of
using pdftotext to convert pdf documents, sometimes its better to use one
of the adobe online conversion tools if pdftotext doesn't produce legible
output. I am just saying this from experience...I haven't had much luck
getting legible output from pdftotext, not even using the raw option.
