(Pro version only)

This filter takes ALL incoming documents and converts them from PDF to text. Most formatting will be lost. After this filter you can add search and replace filters or any other filters you choose.

Normally you set the Output filter's Change Extension to '.TXT' to prevent the original PDFs being overwritten.

Unless you know that all documents being processed are PDFs (e.g. by using a wildcard of *.pdf in the Files to Process tab), you should restrict this filter to only files of a certain extension.
