converting pdfs with xpdf

Hello,
    I'm running freebsd6 and xpdf 3.01_2. I've got pdfs that
i want to 
convert to ps and text documents in four different areas in
my home 
directory. I could convert them such as:
pdfto format file1.pdf file2.ps etc.
but i was wondering if there was a faster way? My second
issue is some of 
these files are pdf 1.6 and as i've already tried xpdf won't
convert these 
docs, does anyone have xpdf working with pdf 1.6 files?
    Second, after i convert all these docs there are three
patterns i'd like 
to remove from them, all having spaces and & signs in
them. Again, i could 
do this manually, but i was wondering one if there was a
faster way and two 
if i could do this on the tail end of the conversion process
so i would only 
have to issue one command and come back probably a while
later, these files 
are big, and it's all done?
Thanks.
Dave.
