As for me stating that it is worth it, I have mentioned that I have been using the PDF export to text feature. I also have used it to do several other things. I am writing about these one-at-a-time in my review, which I hope to have finished soon. I don’t like everything about the program, which is why I wanted to see what Ashampoo PDF Pro v1.11 does with its Export to text in Unicode encoding.
1) You have shown us that you were able to export to Text; even though you did not understand the output, at least you were able to successfully activate the program, otherwise, you would not be able to export to Text at all.
2) You have stated that an alternative is Ashampoo PDF Pro v1.11.
Therefore, I am asking how does the output from Ashampoo PDF Pro v1.11 differ from what you got with Perfect PDF 9 for export to text with Unicode encoding. That should be a simple enough test to do and paste the results into a comment. I look forward to seeing how this one feature compares.
