I recently downloaded two PDF files from www.fpp.co.uk. Two books by the
revisionist historian David Irving who lost a libel case in the United
Kingdom a couple of weeks ago. The files were two books:-

     Hitler's War was HW.PDF
     Nuremberg - the last battle was NUREMBER.PDF

As I am using DOS only on my PC I ran the two files through PDFTOTEX. The
results were not bad but _all_ dates and figures were replaced by spaces!

I had a look at the books in Adobe Acrobat on a Windows machine at work and
cannot see anything odd about the figures 0-9. Why would PDFTOTEX not
translate these ASCII characters? A book by a historian, even one by David
Irving, which has no dates or statistics visible, is not much good to
anyone.
