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.
