Docany PDF to Text Converter
This app can be used to convert PDF files into plain-text files (TXT).
Docany PDF to Text Converter is a utility that can simplify the task of converting several PDF documents into plain-text files.
You can load files by dragging them onto the application. You can add as many as you want, and the application will take care of them all for you. You simply click on the "Start" button. According to the developers, the application will maintain the layout of the text of your PDF files when it converts them. The program is capable of partially converting a file when you tell it what pages you want to convert.
In my testing, I used two PDF files. One of them was text-based and the other one consisted of scanned pages, which means that it is not editable because it contains images instead of text. The text-based PDF was converted into text just fine. The layout of the text was maintained quite well. The other file wasn't converted at all. When I opened the resulting file, all I could see was a text thanking me for using the application.
The trial version of this app lets you convert three pages of each book that you add. It is more than enough to see if it works for you.
