you can convert PDF to TEXT on line here http://www.convertpdftotext.net/

but I'm sure there are plenty other websites and tools that do it

Thank you for telling us that you are blind and use screen readers and other accessibility programs. Unfortunately Packt Publishing does not suport anything other than PDF. You may wish to talk to Tayeb Meftah about what he uses to read PDFs. (I know for a fact that he has read the FreeSWITCH book because he has given me feedback about it.)

In the meantime, let us know if you get your conference and bind_digit_action stuff working.

Hi Michael,

This is a classic case of dialplan parsing vs. executing. I'll let you read
chapters 5 and 8 of the FreeSWITCH book to get a better understanding of the
difference between those two.

My Problem: I working under Linux textbased only. I can.t read a pdf format under this console.
A blind user have manny barrieres, to accessability programs. Accrobat readers working only under a graffic gui, and can.t be use in textmode.
I have a brailledisplay to output only asciicharacters.
