hi, terri, if you want to convert a pdf image files to text, you can try a PDF to Text Converter can extract text from PDF files, enables you to copy and reuse text in the read-only PDF files by converting PDF to Text. With its help, you can convert multiple PDF files to Text documents either partially or in a batch. I have used it several times, it is easy to convert pdf to text.

Upload your file to http://docs.google.com
Check "Convert text from PDF or image files to Google Docs documents. " before starting upload.
Then you can find the converted file on your Google Docs.

Are you trying to extract text from a jpeg? The fastest way is to retype it. Interns are good for doing this. The next way is to use a photo editing program to turn all the colors, that are different than the color of the text to white (or black) and then use an optical character recognition program to extract the test.

As far as I known you can download a screen capturer ,I've used one named "snageit" it's free.And its capturing rendering is very nice.Then you just put the images into the OCR recognition of MS WORD . find the tool there has a OCR recognition and a output to word option,push it in order.Finally you will get a editable doc.

What a silly question! You do know that you are talking about completely different file systems, oh hell. This is just ridiculous. It can't be done and there is no reason to even do something so asinine.

It's called OCR, and FreeOCR is downloadable, free, clean and about all you need. http://www.paperfile.net/
