I'm looking for a tool where I can reliable convert a pdf to an excel spreadsheet from the commandline (as I would like to use a script to automate this).
I need something that will properly convert the pdf, as you would using Acrobat Pro or similar programs.
pdftotext This command will help you to convert pdf to text. Excel has the capability to import text data. If you prefer to convert text data to csv please refer the answer given here

I have a client who wants to sell PDF books with the buyer's name and timestamp embedded in the PDF so it would be visible on several pages through the PDF book. This would be purchased through PayPal. Is there Linux command line software to write a string into a PDF so that it is visible when viewed as a PDF document? Don't want to watermark the page, just a small section for it to print something like "Purchased by John Doe on MM/DD/YY'.
My suggestion would be to take a look at the toolchain of commands Calibre uses when editing ebooks, of which PDF is one of the formats

I have a large amount of document in different format, e.g. doc, xls, ppt, docx, odf, etc. I am looking for a Linux library, which allow me to convert different kinds of document to PDF with a command.
Is this library exist? Do you have any suggestion?
Thanks everyone. :)
A good place to start would probably be the source code of LibreOffice.
It's not a "library" as such, but you can use OpenOffice conversions from the command line: http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=7242

Does anyone know of a good ocr that is able to convert this image into text?
I tried tesseract but it didn't work out the way I expected.
You can try at first to find the text "Gold Price" or "GBP" (if this text is always the same)
And then you will know the place where that text is places, then just cut that part of image containing the text and proceed OCR to that line separately.
You can also try Cuneiform:

Sounds like you need Engauge Digitizer (Open Source) - Digitizing software that converts an image file showing a graph or map, into numbers.
