I found a truly free PDF to TXT converter that works well. (Some PDF to TXT)

(txt is sooo much smaller than rtf :-)

but man its a headache to format them. Now some pdf's have HEADER AND FOOTER information. is there a way to NUKE that information from the PDF? its "different" each page so I can not even use a global replace command (it has the page number in each so each is IDENTICAL except for that damned page number :-) hehe

still trying to automate the \r\n replacements in notepad++

I am going to search the forum for this Calibre now and see what thats about. thanks!
