Janet makes a good point about the layout issue. If you have a fairly
recent version of Kurzweil 1000 or Open Book, printing the PDF to the OCR
package's "virtual printer" is a handy way to tackle this issue
non-visually.
Take care.

However you have to be careful when converting to plain text because the
text doesn't always get saved in the correct layout, so you may end up with
bits from the end at the beginning. For me, this is OK, as I do have a
little vision so I just print out the PDF and then read through it using a
CCTV and checking the text document as I go through it.
