 If no, what do you get just copying and pasting the equation from the PDF? The same garbage? Or at least something a bit closer? I don't think there's much you can do that's not going to require a bunch of manual tweaks and fixes.  |

	my problem is that my source is a 780 pages pdf file with at least one equation on each page and that the author is deceased. H  |

			PDF is for viewing and Printing. Only image scans are worse to convert.
