    5 out of 5 stars Excellent product!   January 4, 2007

    Not only does this product convert PC-generated PDFs to other formats, but it also converts SCANNED PDF files. This is an invaluable tool ... it has saved me a ton of re-typing time!


    1 out of 5 stars Worked poorly for me   December 7, 2006

    It is hard to think of this product as anything other than a rip-off. I tried it on two scanned in documents. In both cases, it simply retained the pages as images, and presented the page images as graphic images, in both word and html output. This, of course, did not render them editable, searchable, or anything of the sort.

    This product is supposed to have OCR built in. It simply didn't activate the OCR on what was clearly text (albeit scanned), and processed each page as if it were a picture.

    I was running the product on NT 4.0. The product give virtually no feedback or control as to what it is doing, or how it is analyzing pages, so if it choses to treat scanned text as a "picture," you are simply out of luck.

    I also tried the product on some non-scanned PDFs. It did okay, but the conversion to HTML was quirky, with the text being okay, but with "ruler lines" being poorly placed, often on top of the text.

    Maybe version two is better, but it also costs twice as much.
