The PDF to TXT program, the current version does a pretty fair job of reading scanned files.

I don't have the exact web address for the Empowerment Zone, but it was posted here several months ago and the price for the program is right!

Hello everyone, for some .pdf files I have found success with opening up the 
file.  If it doesn't read after the processing has finished to the 
following.
1.  Save the document with save as, under file then save as.  Name it and 
save it where you desire, and then go to that file and open it up.  It will 
reprocess again, but should be readable.  This doesn't work with all .pdf 
files especially those that have been scanned.  If anyone knows how these 
can be read let me know, and thanks in advance.
    You also could try searching for the file on google and google has html 
versions of many .pdf files.
