Description

Extract API. A unique assembly that contains a set of essential methods for working with textual data from filled PDF forms. They allow exposing text information in PDF documents and facilitate their text processing. PDF Extract API can be used both as a server DLL module (try it now) allowing online PDF files processing and as a parsing engine (download our samples) running on .NET platform with C#, Visual Basic, C++, J# support. PDF Extract API uses exportable C-language style functions.

Features

PDF Extract API provides you with 5 effective features:

Words counting

Counting the occurrence of a certain word

Getting a set of all words in a document

Searching for a certain word in a text

Retrieving in coordinates the locations of a word/words

Only a few lines of code are needed to make the first application work, so you can concentrate more on customizing an appearance of your program and defining the most efficient way it may be exploited.

C# Sample Code

private void bConvertToText_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {

                   

            if (edPDFPath.Text.Trim().Length > 0)

            {

                txtData.Text = PDFEXAPI.NPD_GetWords(edPDFPath.Text, Convert.ToInt32(edPage.Value)-1);

            }
