How to properly reformat txt for conversion

Hi,

i did a few pdf<s conversion with ocr software, but a few of these files have formating problems. Some of them do not format the whole width of the page. Is there a way to reformat these files so they take the whole page? (using word but any software will do, tried a few things but they have /n right in the middle so no idea how to remove that, tried even to select formatted txt in finereader but its still the same deal with these pdfs)They were colums before so all the txt once in word takes that same width as a column which takes way too many pages and converts very baddly to other formats

thanks

Edit: Well i found a way, ocr in finereader, save it to pdf...yes pdf! Import to solid pdf converte and convert to doc, open word and copy and paste in wordpad... yes "workpad". Finally copy and paste into Komposer and save to html... long process but it works! Anyone has any shortcuts?

Edit 2: Scratch all that finereader can save to lit... i ll test this soon !
