In such cases you can not select text to copy / paste or just for reference. To extract text from an Image or a PDF containing only images, I used Tesseract OCR Engine and Ghostscript. I am running Fedora 19 at the moment, however these steps should apply to an older version of Fedora or Ubuntu. ( I believe this can be done on Windows as well ).
