Handy tool for formatted PDFs

Hey folks,
I just wanted to let you know about this tool I just found as it might be useful for you for the coming weeks. When we copy/paste from a PDF, sometimes the text comes out like this

The video-stimulated post interaction

experiences with the language learning system.
