AABBYY Finereader - Omnipage haven't been able to catch it in several 
years either feature or qualitywise. No idea if Finereader runs under 
emulator though.  If the file is already a PDF and 72 DPI with text as 
graphics most of the damage has already been done, and it will be 
extremely hard to OCR.
