Hi all,

Recently, there was a mention of something called Word Service. I went looking 
for it and found something even more useful on the same site. It's called 
pdf2rtf service. This service allows you to open pdf files in textedit. I find 
preview to be usable, but not always very intuitive.

My professor makes notes available for each lecture as powerpoint files. I 
export them to pdf using Keynote from the iwork suite, then I open the pdf in 
textedit. Now not only do I have the notes, but I can quickly insert my own 
notes if I hear something during the lecture that I think could be important. 
I'm pretty sure you can't do that in preview.

Here's the link for the download page. Strangely, instead of just copying the 
address, if I press vo-shift-m and select copy link, it actually copies the 
original link from the site. Must have been introduced in a recent nightly. 
Hopefully it's clickable.

Hope someone else finds this discovery useful.
