Hello, everyone,

I wanted to let you all know that I found a PDF converter called iSky PDF 
Converter for Mac.  I downloaded the free trial and it is accessible.  They 
have a paid version that supposedly had OCR and recognizes up to seventeen 
separate languages.  The free and paid versions convert into Word, TXT, HTML, 
Excel, etc. and supposed preserve all of the original formatting.  When I 
converted a PDF file containing a table, though, and looked at the 
errors-warnings contained, it said that cells that extended off the Page were 
resized to all the same size and that a couple of fonts were not supported.  I 
wondered if anyone has used this product (either free or paid) and if so, what 
are your thoughts?  Do you like it?  Hate it?  Does it actually work as 
advertised?  It occurred to me that translators and others working with PDF 
files have to work with PDF files and need them editable, and these often 
include scanned images that need OCR technology.  It got me to wondering what 
the problem is with such converters for the blind and why they may not work for 
our needs as well.

Thanks,

Harry
