And we will need to edit the PDF's at times so we need the Text PDF.
Funny thing is we already have some of the products mentioned installed.
I will be checking for updates to see how we can get the results we
need.

I would like to thank everyone on this list for answering my inquiry.
You responses along with my research will help greatly in choosing the
appropriate path.

Thank you,

Chris,

Besides Gumbo and CoolSpools which were already mentioned, Brad Stone's
BVS Tools has the
functionality you are looking for.

One thing to consider when looking at these tools, make sure they allow
you to choose between image
PDF and text PDF.

In other words, some AFPDS to PDF converters only process the AFPDS as
an image. The nice thing is
this usually provides a more exact duplicate of what the printed AFPDS
document looks like. The
downside is that image PDFs tend to be bigger and are not searchable
since there's no actual text
inside.
