Hi to all, I was trying to convert form pdf to rtf in order to share docs with non-conTeXt people. Acrobat 7.0 allows with "save as" to export to many formats. When I convert a pdf created with MSword (or something like: I tried also with some on-line pdfs) I have substantially no problems. But when I convert pdfs created with context or latex I have no blank spaces in the output rtf. Also, accents became autonomous ' (like in source). This seems to be systematic: same behavior with conversion to doc or html, same behavior if I use Trapeze converter instead of Acrobat.
E.g.: pdf in --> out (rtf, doc, ...):
questo � un test --> questo`euntest
I suppose it depends on pedf source generation. Any hints?
tex does not have a space, and spacing ends up in skips; also, sometimes slot 32 is used for whatever char needs a slot; your problem is not related to pdftex, but a bug in the exporter which is unable to handle arbitrary encodings an option is to use texnansi encoding which is the least problematic one Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
