Hello all,

Is there any freeware component I can use in order to extract text from a
PDF file? I dont want to use the ActiveX of Acrobat Reader.

Thank you all

Do a google for pdftotext.exe. Runs from the command line, blisteringly fast
and accurate and free!

Hi,

Have a look for IFilter on Google. There's a DotNet application and SpFilter
on http://develop.shorterpath.com.

SpFilter contains a bug though that is explained with a workaround in the
DotNet version (you cannot FreeLib the acrobat dll, so just have to keep
linking it and unlink all instances when leaving the application).
