Text Cloner Pro from Premier Literacy costs around $100, and is
supposed to do what OpenBook or Kurzweil will do, for a lot less
money of course.  This would include OCR of PDF documents.  However,
as they all say, I haven't tried it.  Their web page says it's
designed to work with everything, though.  I wish someone would buy
it and let us know.  this could be a really great solution, if it
works.  I have seen their learning disability products, which are
super; but not Text Cloaner.

Note that the below address is on two lines.  And it's a press release.
