Extract Text from PDF?

[joshmarquis]

I've looked and saw a post from 2004 about converting a PDF document to text. I didn't know if there had been any changes. Is is possible to pull the text out of a PDF document with TX Text Control .NET Server? I don't really want to save anything on the server's filesystem, but can if I have to.

I've modified the example conversion to pull the text out of everything but a pdf and noticed that PDF wasn't an option for the input...

Any help?

Thanks,

Hello Josh

It is currently not possible to extract the text from a PDF. At the moment, only the PDF export is available.

Do you know of any product that does? We're still most likely going to go with TX Text Control .NET Server for the other kinds of documents...

Thanks.
