I am trying to convert a pdf (and for that matter a postscript) type file
to plain text. Response to my earlier mail suggested using File:Slurp,
specifically;
#!/usr/bin/perl
use File::Slurp;
use CGI qw/:standard/;
$pdf_guts = read_file("/path/to/my.pdf");
---------------------------------
In the above, however, $pdf_guts is an "unintelligible text file" (same
contents and size as the pdf). What I will really love is a true
conversion script (similar to html2txt).
Thanks to all who responded to my earlier mail.
