Anyone able to OCR a PDF file?

Has anyone figured out how to get one of the Linux OCR engines (like
tesseract) to accept a graphical file (other than .tiff) as input? In
particular I'm going to be swamped with graphical PDF files this year.
Printing these just to scan them seems both wasteful and inefficient.

I know people do this on other OS's. Has anyone suggestions on how to do
this in Linux?

All suggestions greatly appreciated.
