API to extract text from RTF to XLIFF

Can the java api be used to extract text to XLIFF from RTF files? If so, can someone point me to the javadoc for this feature.

How to extract text from a PDF file?

Hello Suners,
i need to know how to extract text from a pdf file?
does anyone know what is the character encoding in pdf file, when i use an input stream to read the file it gives encrypted characters not the original text in the file.
is there any procedures i should do while reading a pdf file,
File f=new File("D:/File.pdf");
               FileReader fr=new FileReader(f);
               BufferedReader br=new BufferedReader(fr);
               String s=br.readLine();any help will be deeply appreciated.

First, you set i once, and then loop without ever changing it. So your loop body will execute either 0 times or infinitely many times, writing the same byte every time. Actually, maybe it'll execute once and then throw an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException. That's basic java looping, and you're going to need a firm grip on that before you try to do anything as advanced as PDF reading. the case.oops you are absolutely right that was a silly mistake to forget that,
Second, what do the docs for getPageContent say? Do they say that it simply gives you the text on the page as if the thing were a simple text doc? I'd be surprised if that's the case.getPageContent return array of bytes so the question will be:
how to get text from this array? i was thinking of :
    private void jButton1_actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        PdfReader read;
        StringBuffer buff=new StringBuffer();
        try {
            read = new PdfReader("d:/getjobid2727.pdf");
            read.getMetaData();
            byte[] data=read.getPageContent(1);
            int i=0;
            while(i>-1){
                buff.append(data);
i++;
String str=buff.toString();
FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream("D:/test.txt");
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(fos, "UTF8");
out.write(str);
out.close();
read.close();
} catch (Exception f) {
f.printStackTrace();
"D:/test.txt" hasn't been created!! when i ran the program,
is my steps right?

Problem to extract text from HTML document

I have to extract some text from HTML file to my database. (about 1000 files)
The HTML files are get from ACM Digital Library. http://portal.acm.org/dl.cfm
The HTML page is about the information of a paper. I only want to get the text of "Title" "Abstract" "Classification" "Keywords"
The Problem is that I can't find any patten to parser the html files"
EX: I need to get the Classification = "Theory of Computation","ANALYSIS OF ALGORITHMS AND PROBLEM COMPLEXITY","Numerical Algorithms and Problem","Mathematics of Computing","NUMERICAL ANALYSIS"......etc .
The section code about "Classification" is below.
Please give any idea to do this, or how to find patten to extract text from this.

One approach is to download Htmlparser from sourceforge
http://htmlparser.sourceforge.net/ and write the rules to match title, abstract etc.
Another approach is to write your own parser that extract only title, abstract etc.
1. tokenize the html file. --> convert html into tokens (tag and value)
2. write a simple parser to extract certain information
find out about the pattern of text you want to extract. For instance "<class "abstract">.
then writing a rule for extracting abstract such as
if (tag is abstract ) then extract abstract text
apply the same concept for other tags
Attached is the sample parser that was used to extract title and abstract from acm html files. Please modify to include keyword and other fields.
good luck

Extract Text from pdf using C#

Hi,
We are Solution developer using Acrobat,as we have reuirement of extracting text from pdf using C# we have downloaded adobe sdk and installed. We have found only four exmaples in C# and those are used only for viewing pdf in windows application. Can you please guide us how to extract text from pdf using SDK in C#.
Thanks you for your help.
Regards
kiranmai

Okay so I went ahead and actually added the text extraction functionality to my own C# application, since this was a requested feature by the client anyhow, which originally we were told to bypass if it wasn't "cut and dry", but it wasn't bad so I went ahead and gave the client the text extraction that they wanted. Decided I'd post the source code here for you. This returns the text from the entire document as a string.
 private static string GetText(AcroPDDoc pdDoc)
 AcroPDPage page;
 int pages = pdDoc.GetNumPages();
 string pageText = "";
 for (int i = 0; i < pages; i++)
 page = (AcroPDPage)pdDoc.AcquirePage(i);
 object jso, jsNumWords, jsWord;
 List<string> words = new List<string>();
 try
 jso = pdDoc.GetJSObject();
 if (jso != null)
 object[] args = new object[] { i };
 jsNumWords = jso.GetType().InvokeMember("getPageNumWords", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, jso, args, null);
 int numWords = Int32.Parse(jsNumWords.ToString());
 for (int j = 0; j <= numWords; j++)
 object[] argsj = new object[] { i, j, false };
 jsWord = jso.GetType().InvokeMember("getPageNthWord", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, null, jso, argsj, null);
 words.Add((string)jsWord);
 foreach (string word in words)
 pageText += word;
 catch
 return pageText;

Extract text from pdf

Hi, is it possible to extract text from a pdf file using the command line to get an output like you would get by using the File menu and then 'Save as text..."?
I also noticed that in the installation folder there is a small executable called AcroTextExtractor which sounds interesting, but I was unable to figure out how to use it.

what's wrong with using automator for this? this certainly seems the easiest. I'm not aware of any built in apple script commands that will do this. But You should also ask on the Apple script forum under Mac OS Technologies.

Applescript or workflow to extract text from PDF and rename PDF with the results

Hi Everyone,
I get supplied hundreds of PDFs which each contain a stock code, but the PDFs themselves are not named consistantly, or they are supplied as multi-page PDFs.
What I need to do is name each PDF with the code which is in the text on the PDF.
It would work like this in an ideal world:
1. Split PDF into single pages
2. Extract text from PDF
3. Rename PDF using the extracted text
I'm struggling with part 3!
I can get a textfile with just the code (using a call to BBEDIT I'm extracting the code)
I did think about using a variable for the name, but the rename functions doesn't let me use variables.

Hello
You may also try the following applescript script, which is a wrapper of rubycocoa script. It will ask you choose source pdf files and destination directory. Then it will scan text of each page of pdf files for the predefined pattern and save the page as new pdf file with the name as extracted by the pattern in the destination directory. Those pages which do not contain string matching the pattern are ignored. (Ignored pages, if any, are reported in the result of script.)
Currently the regex pattern is set to:
/HB-.._[0-9]{6}/
which means HB- followed by two characters and _ and 6 digits.
Minimally tested under 10.6.8.
Hope this may help,

hi,it is possible if you can pay a lot of money,
since I just finished developed a web search app

from pp to text ,the client did not ask for it
because he do not wanna to pay so much money.

Extract Text from PostScript

Can anyone please tell me how to extract text from postscript

Ghostscript is a postscript interpreter (one can actually program in postscript, and in fact postscript is a language BTW/FYI). Ghostscript is written in C (maybe C++) and yes, you can output to several different formats. I doubt you can go to HTML as it wouldn't really make much sense.
XML needs a DTD to make it of any use. You will have to call ghostscript through Runtime.exec() to use it, it will extract out purely the text from the PostScript ASSUMING the PS file contains text in that manner; it is possible to have PS text as output images in which case GS won't pick it up.

Extracting text from header, body of an InCopy table...

Hi folks, I have a script that runs in InCopy CS3 on the Windows platform and part of it extracts text from the header and body parts of a table. If the insertion point is in the header, I can put the text into a variable using...
var textToExtract = app.selection[0].parentStory.contents;
Same scenario if the insertion point is in the body of the table. Anyway, I'm looking for a way to set the insertion point in the Header or Body sections of the table or, better yet, a way of extracting the data directly from those containers. Any ideas are, of course, appreciated. Thanks, Wil

Yes, I am stuck with the same problem.... any ideas out there?
thanks

Easy question: Extracting text from DOM

I'm new to XML, so bear with me for a sec. I'm using the v2
parser with JDK 1.2.2 to generate dynamic web pages from XML
files. A button on the web page needs to kick off a routine that
sends financial data from the DOM from which the page was
generated into a graphing program. I've perused the parser API
docs for methods that will extract the actual displayed text
from
DOM nodes (the content between the starting & ending <text>
tags), but have only been able to extract element names,
attributes, values, etc. For example, here's a snippet from the
XML document:
<text x="253" cellwidth="111" align="center" fontface="Arial,
Helvetica" fontsize="3" pointsize="12" bold="true"
italic="false">$93.63</text>
It's the $93.63 that's important to me. Getting the attributes
and values from within the tags is no problem. But I need to be
able to suck out the actual text that gets spit out onto the
browser. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Extracting text from Customer master information records

Hi,
I want to extract the details of texts from the customer material information record (Tranx: VD52). All the input data like Sales org,Distribution channel, Customer number and material number are stored in structure MV10A. How to use this data to extract the relevant text descriptoins in the customer-material info records.
Thanks for your response.

No problem, we can concatenate all four in one field.
First you need to declare a variable G_NAME(70) type C.
Then use syntax
CONCATENATE SALES ORG DISTRI CHANNEL CUSTOMER MATNR INTO G_NAME.
Pass this G_NAME to the function module.
Also you need to use Conversion routines to get correct Customer and Material No.
call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_MATN1_INPUT'
     exporting
          input        = MATNR
    IMPORTING
         OUTPUT       = MATNR
    EXCEPTIONS
         LENGTH_ERROR = 1
         OTHERS       = 2.
call function 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT'
     exporting
          input   = KUNNR
    IMPORTING
         OUTPUT = KUNNR.
Use above 2 routines before you do concatenation.
