Copying Text From a PDF to a KM Variable?

Hey Ali,

While AppleScriptObjC works well for extracting text from PDFs, it does not do a good job of preserving their layout.

The best tool I've ever found for the job (so far) is pdftotext.

See this topic:

Keyboard Maestro “Convert PDF Files into Text Files in the Front Finder Window” Macro

Don't stop at the first post...
