This is a really great and extremely useful add-on.
If I convert a page to a .pdf then open it in Acrobat I can edit the text (for my own use only).
However, with .pdfs converted from one particular site I get this Acrobat error message: "This page contains only an image of a scanned page. There are no text characters. Would you like to run character analysis to try to make the text on this page accessible?" (I've tried this and it doesn't work.)
Yet I can still highlight and copy text from the original web page.
Is this a Web2PDF problem or an Acrobat problem? Or is it something to do with the way the source page is set up, and is there anything I can do in order to preserve editable text in Acrobat?
