Dan,

Let me take a stab it... (please correct me if I'm totally in a
different universe as I write this)...

I think you can use Sneaker Net Method by printing the PDF out first.
Then take a regular scan and OCR it to pull the text out...
Then Convert it to RTF
Then into a NewtonBook

This is more tedious but you can get around it possibly even if it is encry=
pted
Am I wrong?
