Re: Extracting ASCII text from a PDF Document

pdftotext is a different program, mine with the -v argument returns:

pdftotext version 3.02
Copyright 1996-2007 Glyph & Cog, LLC


It also outputs to a file with the basename but containing a .txt
extension.  I believe it is part of the xpdf utilities.

What happens when you run pdftotext on the file?

I think that 7.13.remote is some stray text that got outputted
from the file before pstotext exploded.

	The output would have gone to standard output had it
worked.
