Again, I appreciate the help. I didn't want to reply "It doesn't work" without carefully trying.
The document is a nice challenge. A parent company out of state won't pay for the local large print version. I take a proof pdf, save as text, flow with styles....it works nicely excepting Acrobat's paragraph returns, loss of tabs, all complicated by the proof having parsed thru a Creo RIP. Native ID export would have maintained the integrity, but it all flows now.
