Its is extremely impressive they do image extraction and aslo present a
really impressive text version of a PDF (could be good for indexing files)
for pdf to html, you may have to use their tools and do pdf -> ps -> html as
im dead sure ive seen a ps2html converter around.
Or if you are C compatable you could easily hack their source for pdftotext
to create a reasonable HTML file yourself.
(BTW: This stuff works well under Windows)

Hi all,
is it possible to read text and images from a "pdf" file to get the output
directly to a browser without a plugin. I could not find a function in the
pdf part to do that.
Yours
