OK! Crew here is the problem.
I have a PDF book digitised by Bezo's mob which are in Public Domain. The way they have done it is by using images ( that appear to me as being just photocopies) so that you cannot copy any of the text you wish to add to your study notes. I came across this many moons ago but generally can get around it by locating copies that are digitised by the Universities or oddly enough Microsoft (the only plus I know for them.) and other sponsors that hold the hard copy books and so I am able to extract text that I want so I can copy and paste into Libre Office word.
I have to-day been installing then testing the PDF programs that allow you to edit, merge, split etc. PDF's but I cannot get one to turn it into text and uninstalling them when they didn't. Even had Libre Office open it up and it opened it up in Draw and still wasn't able to get to the text alone.
So is there a program that can convert images with text in to just text?
What is JSON file and how are they created and what can read them?
