Try putting the pdf files through an OCR program. I’m not sure of a work around for Google books.

Much of my material can be accessed through Google Books. Unfortunately JFW cannot read the image. Also, what about reading protected PDF’s? My research often leads me to websites that make the images of original documents available online as PDS’s but often these cannot be read. Any suggestions?
