Hi May,
On the mac, if you need this often, then abbyy fine reader is a good solution. 
Its interface has a combobox where you input where your image is coming from, 
so either a scanner or a file, and the next combo box lets you decide what to 
convert it to. It is that simple, but it does cost 80 dollars. Otherwise, I 
would ask a friend running windows to quickly do it for you, using pdf2txt. 
That is quick. On the mac, I don't yet know of a free and easy program to do 
just that.

Hth,
Paul.
