pstotextExtract ASCII from PostScript and PDF.

A free Unix program that extracts ASCII text from PostScript and PDF (Acrobat) files. pstotext uses GhostScript, but does a more careful job with kerned characters and nonstandard font encodings than Ghostscript's ps2ascii utility. This package was implemented by Andrew Birrell and Paul McJones and catalogued for CTAN.
