I'm trying to extract plain text from a PDF file, but so far haven't found
any Acrobat plugin that does this AND is scriptable.
I'm not aware of ANY scriptable plug-ins for Acrobat - that
do this or anything else. There hasn't been much of a market for it,
and it's pretty wonky to implement scriptability in Acrobat.
Can anybody lead me to an alternative plugin, or a stand-alone, scriptable
program that'll pull text from either an EPS or a PDF?
Our company (<
http://www.digapp.com>) is about to ship a
product called PDFText which will extract text from a PDF and the Mac
version is scriptable. It is, however, designed for server-side
usage and is priced accordingly.
