There seem to be two versions of pdftotext, one here and one in xpdf.

This version is the one packaged for Debian, so ideally I want all 
the function in this version.

There is an ERP package, used to be called OpenERP, now called Odoo,
and there is a plugin for that which interprets PDF invoices so that
they do not have to be retyped.  It needs the --layout and --table
options which do not appear to be in this version.

Any chance of getting these new options ported across here so that
the standard Debian version is supported?
