Ah, apologies. I was just testing with $ find *.pdf -print0 | xargs -0 cat to see if the pipe itself worked as expected. I guess pdftotext is one of those things I've yet to grok, since on my end all I get is the -h message from pdftotext. PS I'm glad you did find (better) help on the list. -- -- _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
