Hi,
Maybe I will try to get Pandoc and see how well it does if I add it to the
EdSharp converters.

Subject: Re: PDF generated by LaTeX
There are utilities in Ubuntu, such as pandoc, which perform
conversions between LaTeX, ePub, HTML, and other markup / markdown
formats. It is cross platform and is available free for Windows as
well. Do you have access to the LaTeX version of the documents or just
the PDF? There are lots of methods to take structured text in many
formats, such as Word, and produce a structured PDF. However, I have
not seen any utilities to retain structure when extracting text from a
PDF. By design, it was meant to be one way. If anyone has found this
capability, without resorting to OCR, I would be interested.
