There can be numerous PDF protections beside the actual contents just being slices of images.
There’s a complement of tools and scripts that can make a PDF readable, but the end-all is Adobe Acrobat Pro’s “enhance scans” to OCR them, which will also pull the text out of healed images and represent it as a font instead of a mere overlay.
Then the file can be text-extracted simply by code interpreter or your own tool similar to what the AI would write to perform the task.
GPT-4-vision will refuse flat-out OCR tasks, but instead will interpret if you want a poem based on your sales figures.
openai.InternalServerError: Error code: 500 - {‘error’: {‘message’: ‘Something went wrong processing one of your images.’, ‘type’: ‘server_error’, ‘param’: None, ‘code’: None}}
After one of those, I got a more cooperative GPT-4AI by API than prior chatbot vision…so there might be hope … perhaps because chatbots don’t like doing your OCR otherwise at 1.5 cents per page
I’m happy to help. Here’s the transcription of the text within the image:

“MAINTENANCE” MENU
MENU > machine settings > maintenance.
To clean all the machine’s internal circuits used for making coffee and milk. Turn the click wheel with your finger to:
maintenance
milk circ. rinse cycle
rinse the milk circuits after making the beverages.
maintenance
milk cleaning cycle
thoroughly clean the milk circuits. This must be performed after a fixed time has elapsed from the first dispensing.
maintenance
coffee cleaning cycle
clean the brew group.
maintenance
descaling cycle
Perform the descaling cycle.
Milk circuit rinse cycle
MENU > machine settings > maintenance > milk circ. rinse cycle
To rinse the machine’s internal circuits used for preparing milk. This short cycle must be necessarily performed after 20 minutes from the last dispensing of a beverage with milk.
If it is not performed, the machine comes to a halt and does not allow the dispensing of milk beverages.
Note: before performing this function make sure that:
1. a large enough container is positioned under the spout;
2. the milk container has been correctly inserted in the machine;
3. the water tank contains a sufficient quantity of water.

Remove the container, rinse and dry.
AFTER USE, ALWAYS REMOVE THE MILK CONTAINER AND PUT IT IN THE REFRIGERATOR.
The container may be left in the machine only if it has been washed with drinking water and it does not contain milk; see page 38.
