dear Lisa:

Yes, there is a free conversion service to convert .PDF files
into plain text, and I think its address is listed below.

I think it is something like:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] or [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Important note:

Not all .PDF files are convertible into text!  Some .PDF files
consist of graphic images of text rather than the actual text and
these graphic files just don't convert at all.

Adobe does have the Access Plug-In for the Acrobat .PDF reader
but I believe it is free, not paid for.

If the creator of the .PDF files is security conscious and has
set the security flag of the .PDF, I don't believe the pdf2text
service or the Access Plug-In will be able to read it.

Of course the Access Plug-In only works on a PC, not a notetaker
like a BrailleNote.

Sorry I haven't been able to give you all good news.

Brian
