I own Acrobat 9 Pro. It's megacool and today I got to looking at some of the extra features and realized I probably don't have to go out and find a PDF-to-HTML converter. I say "probably" because I just ran a test saving a text-only PDF file as HTML from Acrobat. I've been doing Web design for years, and when I opened up the resulting file in my HTML editor there were problems. Although id does include CSS -- a must-have -- there were still a large number of style settings that needed to be eliminated and all handled by a single CSS selector. I tried doing a search-and-replace in Dreamweaver, which normallly works very quickly even over an entire site, and it started grinding away like my antivirus software does during a deep scan of my hard drives. I did look at the output options in Acrobat, but there was nothing there that indicated I could gain more control over the nature of HTML it generates. Any tips?
