Just caught this... I've done some pretty extensive PDF parsing, for Greyhound programs however. Fully automated, using various command-line text extraction tools. When I looked at doing this with DRF and Equibase PDF's there were a number of complications. You have lots of embedded tiny fractions, and even worse, symbols embedded in horse PP's... which make text conversion difficult. I still say it COULD be done!!
