about (there is another application called PDF2TXT which runs on Linux systems, but I doubt that that's what's been discussed here), then given that it's not free (you can use it for 30 days as a trial version, and it costs US$35 after that), I doubt that the OCR engine behind it is going to be available to anyone to turn into an NVDA addon (unless the author is prepared to share the source code under an NDA and for the result then to be a paid add-on). See http://www.pdf2txt.com/eula.htm for the licensing details. Antony.
