For this kind of "work around", I am currently writing an application called "e-book scanner" for my personal use. It's an application where you define a screen region and a click point for next page, and it automatically scans ("print screens") the whole e-book to jpg files. Then I use the ABBYY FineReader to convert it to pdf format. Depending on the font, you can get a 100% correct recognition, and a very good formatting.
Any other solution will be a hard one, if not impossible (depending on the encoder used for encryption)... |
Bojan -- does the FineReader PDF file contain text or just the jpg files? Because I've tried to view the GoogleBooks PDF files which are nothing but jpg files and they don't show up at all.
