See: Well... if you download the source for pdftotext (from the xpdf package) you can overide the check on those bits pretty easily. Official distribution of xpdf can't obviously have that check removed of course. But I believe that what you personally do privately on your own computer is up to you. BTW, since someone mentioned the existence of a pdftohtml package available on the net, I downloaded the source and improved them a bit so it now produces really nice and useful HTML out of all the PDF files I've converted so far. I'd even say humbly that with my changes pdftohtml is now producing equal or even better HTML than what Adobe's online conversion tool is doing. And of course my initial issue with sending confidential documents over to Adobe is now no more. If someone wants the patch just tell me.
