Hello,
I am trying to read several pdf's which are scanned versions of documents. Because of the way they are scanned, VoiceOver reacts to them as though they were an image and registers no text to read. I thought I had read once of a pdf reader which could extract the text from image pdf's, but can't seem to find it again. Does anyone know if such a thing exists? Any help would be appreciated,

KNFB and pages out of order
I've found this a couple of times. KNFB does OCR very well, but the pages are sometimes out of order. Anyone else had this problem? I can't tell whether it's something to do with the PDF or not. I emailed KNFB support and got a curious reply: first sentence said 'we will pass this on to the engineers.' second sentence said 'I hope this information has resolved your query.' Is it just me, or does the second sentence not really follow from the first?
