I *HATE* doing anything with PDFs other than reading

PDF was never _intended_ for documents that should undergo any further
processing. The few things that have been hacked onto it for interactive
use are actually the worst thing about PDF.
My opinion
is that PDF is where information goes to die.
Creating the PDF was the
last time that anything other than a human could use the information as
a unit.
I don't have any more difficulty extracting and processing scanned page
images out of a PDF file than any other container (e.g., TIFF).
