Hi,
granted you may have shared your trying this  source.
Still have you tried emailing the file to robobraille?
conv...@robobraille.org.
simply put the format you desire the file to be once converted into the subject line.
like rtf or mp3.
Attach the file, and they will do the rest.
Yes at least the few times I have tried it, they can manage ocr scanned pdf files.
hth,

You can try
PDF OCR X Community Edition.
it will only convert PDF files containing one page for free.
the full version was $29, the last time I checked.

 Hello GiGi,

 I do have PDFPen Pro version 6.3.2.
 In some cases PDFPen does give me the option to OCR text, which is fine.
 However, in other cases (as in the one described) PDFPen does not
 consistently give me the feature to OCR text.
 Thus, I am left in a predicament because of my irregular experience with
 using PDFPen to OCR text, and the document in question is too large to
 simply print and scan with proprietary software.

 I have tried using Prizmo on the Macintosh, but the results are not great.
 Furthermore, I do observe (at least in this case) that when trying to open
 the document in Preview or another program, the optically recognized text
 reverts back to "image status," which is less than ideal because I am back
 at square one.
 Therefore, I am at a loss.
 Welcome any feedback concerning my issue.

 Thanks for any help you can provide.
