Package: pstotext (1.9-6 and others)

[ Source: pstotext  ]

Extract text from PostScript and PDF files

pstotext extracts text (in the ISO 8859-1 character set) from a PostScript or PDF (Portable Document Format) file. Thus, pstotext is similar to the ps2ascii program that comes with ghostscript. The output of pstotext is however better than that of ps2ascii, because pstotext deals better with punctuation and ligatures.
