I cant seem to save pdf files to text at all, i kno this problem maybe simple but i do need help. I have the Adobe reader *moast updated* and i go to file.save as text, and i let it do its thing, but then i open the file and its a bunch of squares and stuff i copy and paste and its the same thing. i know this might be silly but i do need help

Adobe is copyrighted software I'm afraid (they want you to pay for it)
Adobe Reader is free-- because many websites use it,etc.
but to go beyond reading it costs $

well thats poo, i thought i was just dumb, lol. oh well i might just go buy it or something. Thanx a lot ih8bills. U helped me out again

This software converts PDF to text so you can edit it in word ect but not free. PDF Converter

Adobe --Full version is very expensive.
More directed at writers/editors.
There are a bunch of cheaper converters out there.

If anyone is able to find a freeware PDF-to-Txt converter, I will be very interested as well.

There are tons of free web services/programs that do the reverse (convert .txt and .doc to .pdf) but I can't find one that can actually convert PDF files to plain text.
