If it’s just the ability to copy any converted text and the precise layout/formatting of a converted document is not that important, then by all means give it a try. You have nothing to lose but time.

I often tell folks when tasks like this are undertaken, they have to consider how long the process will take to get a reasonable result.
If a great deal of time is needed (by editing) to produce that reasonable result, it can sometimes by quicker to manually type the text out yourself. I do appreciate that this does depend on typing skills/speed when this is attempted.
