I need to convert about 500 PDFs to text and images or html?

A command line tool is ok, and I'm on a mac, so installable easily or with macports or brew is ideal.

Why don't you consider using the web service Zamzar. They support conversion of pdf to html.

You can try using Calibre, or its command-line program ebook-convert

It's not always 100%, but it works for some PDF files.

I went with installying poppler on mac and using the tools that come with it:

pdftohtml pdftotext pdfimage

works really well
