Description Cheng-Lung Sung 2003-01-04 14:20:01 UTC 
    Original pdftohtml have two output features : html/xml, but I have to 
    use it converted to plain-text file, a useful command is 
    pdftohtml -i -noframes -stdout something.pdf | w3m -dump -T text/html - > something.txt
    . but if user do not have w3m installed, he must find alternate.

Fix: after patch, user can use command 
    %pdftohtml -i -noframes -text something.pdf something
    to generate plain-text pdf files

This is not a FreeBSD specific patch and this new feature 
should be included upstream. Have you tried to contact
