I have done it some times when I had to. Coming out of the Adobe Reader,
you get an ASCII file which needs some clean-up before it is presentable.
And the order of the ASCII you get depends on what reading order you
selected for displaying the document with your screen reader.
I had one of these documents to translate in which the heading for each
page, a question, was in a column down the right side of the page, and the
answer was in the left 3/4 of the page. In default presentation, for each
page, I got the answer, followed by the question. Kind of like Karnac the
Magnificent on the Johnny Carson Show.
