 Hi dear list, 

 I was wondering if anyone has ever successfully tried to extract audio 
 files embedded into adobe pdf files? 

 thanks   
 Hmm, play the PDF while running jack_capture to save the audio output to another file? 
 Hi, and thank you! In order to play the audio in the PDF I guess I would 
 need to install adobe reader (which I want to avoid). 
Well, I suppose you could investigate whatever parts of the PDF standard pertain to
embedding audio and maybe figure out how to use Linux tools to programmatically extract
it. I have no idea how to do that.

I think installing Acrobat Reader would be faster. You could uninstall it afterward.
