Hi Scott,
Unfortunately you cannot open a PDF file in very much else
other than Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat. You definitely
cannot open them in DBT.
However with Adobe Reader 7, you can often do a "Save As"
from Adobe's file menu, and save as Text or HTML.
I say "often" because this feature is only available subject
to the author's permission.
George.
