Convert SHX Text from PDF Files to MTEXT

AutoCAD Video Tips: Convert SHX Text from PDF Files to MTEXT (Lynn Allen/Cadalyst Magazine) 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_4WeKiaEBH8

My workflow is to set up a new layer with a different color so you can easily see what translates and then change the new text to the correct layer.
Select only the shx fonts you need.
Recognition threshold to about 88

Import geometry, fills, raster images, and TrueType text from a PDF file into your current drawing using PDF Import.
PDF files are the most common file format used when exchanging design information between designers, contractors, clients, and others. Use the PDFIMPORT command to import geometry from a PDF page into the current drawing as AutoCAD objects. You can also access PDF Import in the Insert tab of the Ribbon, then click on Import Panel > PDF Import. After selecting a PDF file, use the Import PDF dialog box to customize your import.
BONUS: If your PDF contains AutoCAD .shx fonts, use the Recognize SHX Text tool to convert them into single line Mtext objects. You can find it in the Import panel of the Insert tab.
I have found that LETTERS are ok but symbols iffy.
Set the “Recognition settings” first.
