I just checked, and my poppler-utils has pdftotext at /usr/bin/pdftotext
You can check where yours is by running:
dpkg -L poppler-utils |grep -i pdftotext
If you still can't find it, you may want to reinstalled you
poppler-utils package to see if you can get it to show up.
apt install --reinstall poppler-utils
Any PDF to TXT utility should be as good as another.

What is the best: pdf2txt or pdf2text or pdftotext ?
When I tried: pdf2txt ... this came up:
sudo apt-get install python-pdfminer
Synaptic shows that I have: poppler-utils installed
which includes: pdftotext
but I cannot find it on my system.
What would you recommend as the best solution?
