I use <https://document.online-convert.com/convert-to-txt> to extract the
text from a PDF, then manually edit the text to turn it into Markdown. It
works pretty well. Except sometimes the footnotes in the PDF are
mis-formatted in the output text. This is one of the better PDF to text
convertors I've used and I tested 5 or 6 of the free online convertors.
I may have to try your method though.
