Article: [senit] converting PDF files

We need to prepare material in braille using transcription software, remove shaded text unwanted diagrams etc.

How do you want to manipulate the material?

I'm sorry that this might appear obvious to all you technical wizards out
there - we are a VI service and have been relatively fortunate in recieving
the PDF files of a number of text books, dierctly from the publishers. The
difficulty is that we are having no success in converting these files into a
format that allows us to manipulate the material. Any help would be very
welcome.
Many thanks
