does anyone know of a utility to extract text from a .pdf
file?  this would be much as open-office extracts text
from a .doc file.  and that's a very useful thing
too.

the text information is there, since the find utility
in xpdf can find text strings in the document.
however, i've looked and found no utility such as the
one i need.

any suggestions would be appreciated.
