note snoopy Hi Umesh, <p> It uses Ghostscript, but needs to be installed as a separate package. I'm running on debian which had the `pstotext` package readily available. <p> But the source seems to be getting harder to find. Slackware has an <a href="http://slackbuilds.org/sources/13.0/pstotext-1.9.tar.gz">archive</a>. <p> Hmm, maybe I do need to get back to work on adding word and line consolidation to PDF::ToText. 1012402 1012655
