How to Manage Text In PDF

Hi everyone.
I am pretty new to PDF programming world and for study PDF ,I am prefering PDF specification.
I can manage Printing text on my page but when my text length goes out to the page range it get crop
..so my requirement is how to justified that text line on next line
please suggest how to manage this problem.
currently I am tackling this prob by
T*[()] TJ
but I have to do it manually..
thanks in advance.

You have to do this manually. That is just one reason why it's in general a
bad idea to create PDF files from scratch: You have to process all the font
metrics yourself and find out how wide your text will be, and then position
it accordingly on the page. When you use a PDF library or framework, that
is usually done for you (or at least there are ways to get to that
information in a much more user/programmer friendly way).

  • How to change text in PDF doc. which is a musical score

    Hello,
    I'm new here, so please excuse me if I do or say something I shouldn't.
    I need to change the words in a musical score because the font is too small. OCR recognition doesn"t work because there are illustrations that are different from images or text... Is there a way to get in there and make the changes I need to do?
    Any help greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the reply, but I have Adobe Reader 9 Pro. Will it still not 
    work ?

    How to put text in pdf on ipad?

    The only text you can attach to a PDF in the current Adobe Reader is a "note" comment. If you tap the comments button (the cartoon cloud with pencil) and choose the "note" comment (the cartoon cloud) you can add a note.

  • How to control text for PDF Files in the BI7.0 Broadcaster

    Hi ,
    I am running a web template in the BI7.0 Broadcaster. The output prints in the PDF format. In the precalculation tab I have set up 4 variables(VAR1,VAR2 .. etc) . The main folder where these PDF files get stored I can control the text but dont know how to change the PDF file names which fall into this folder. All the PDF files have the technical name and number(like XXX_00000,XXX_00001 etc.) How can I control the text for these files.
    Thanks,
    Kal

    HI Kal,
    it is not possible to get any influence on the filenames. If you use Filternavigation the filename is generated to be unique.
    best regards,

  • How to read text from PDF and HTML

    I have got solution to read text form .txt file but did'nt get code for PDF and HTML.
    I dont want to convert PDF to txt.
    Please help me ...

    reading from a file is always the same. using the same strategy used for a .txt will allow you to read a .pdf file.
    Offcourse in itself it will be useless becuase pdf files have a special internal structure.
    html files are identical to txt files.
    What are you trying to accomplisch with the files you are reading ?

  • How to search text in pdf file?

    Hi all
    I have to store the cover of a newspaper that include images and text and then should be able to search keywords in the cover.
    I've read about to store in pdf format and use intermedia text.
    I am just wondering the way to store and to do the search .
    Thanks all

    Hi,
    You need store the PDF document in a BLOB column and create a CTXSYS index type.
    e.g.: (.doc files)
    CREATE INDEX I_DOC ON DOC_TABLE (DOC_COLUMN) INDEXTYPE IS CTXSYS.CONTEXT PARAMETERS ('SYNC (ON COMMIT)');Then you can test typing this SQL below:
    select score(1) from DOC_TABLE where contains(DOC_COLUMN, 'My text', 1) > 0;In my case, i use this index for purpose to search on Word Documents (.doc)
    Maybe this link help you to create an index type using FILTERS, in order to search on PDF files:

  • How to edit text on PDF form in Acrobat 8 professional

    I just took a Word doc and created a form for an application.  The client changed the deadline and I would like to know if I can make that change in Acrobat 8 Prof (MAC) or if I have to make the change in Word, create a PDF and completely re-do the form? Of course, it needs to be done right now.

  • 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;

  • 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.

    jverd wrote:
    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,
