Question:Hi. I want to extract a particular text from a PDF file and store it in a string variable and later use it in forms. Is there any method to get certain text from the PDF? I searched Google. I got some examples, but they were not working. Or can u suggest any .Net components that can do the work, with the code examples. Answer:The following code example demonstrates how to extract all the text from any pdf page. This example requires a pdf document named Test001.pdf to be located in the root directory of the drive C. Code:
public void ExtractText()
{
//Initialize the SDK library
//You have to call this function before you can call any PDF processing functions.
PdfCommon.Initialize();
//Open and load a PDF document from a file.
using (var doc = PdfDocument.Load(@"c:\test001.pdf"))
{
foreach (var page in doc.Pages)
{
//Gets number of characters in a page or -1 for error.
//Generated characters, like additional space characters, new line characters, are also counted.
int totalCharCount = page.Text.CountChars;
//Extract text from page to the string
string text = page.Text.GetText(0, totalCharCount);
page.Dispose();
}
}
//Release all resources allocated by the SDK library
PdfCommon.Release();
}
