Hi Ann,
Now I haven't done this in a while, but you can also just copy the link to any 
pdf file, and email the link to
pdf2txt@xxxxxxxxx
I hope that still works these days.  That's what I use to do anyway.

  I am using the version of pdf2txt with an April 2009 release 
  date--3.3, I think.  When I start pdf2txt, search for a document, and 
  convert it, the program works just fine.

  If I choose the document first, associate .pdf files with pdf2txt 
  instead of with Acrobat Reader, my original file is *replaced with 
  the following message:

  This document was created with Win2PDF available at 
http://www.daneprairie.com.
  The unregistered version of Win2PDF is for evaluation or 
  non-commercial use only.
  Following there is a link with no text.  accessing this link gives 
  this message:


  Security Warning
  The document is trying to connect to the site:
  http://www.daneprairie.com
  If you trust the site click "Allow", otherwise click "Block".
  Remember my action for the site: www.daneprairie.com
  Block Allow

  As far as I can tell, although the document continues to be described 
  as two pages, the original text is unrecoverable.

  Am I missing a trick here?  How can I get my stuff back???

  Thanks a bunch.

  Ann
