  • 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:

  • Search text in PDF and MS Word document

    Can any body tell me how search text in PDF
    and MS Word document through Java code, any
    body has code or any suggestion to giveYes.
    First, you need to work out how to read each document type from Java.
    E.g, for MS Word you could use Apache Jakarta POI - HWPF: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/hwpf/index.html
    Then, you use Apache Lucene to index and search.
    See http://lucene.apache.org/java/docs/index.html

  • 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.

  • Searching text in PDF

    I believe that I have heard that in GW 8 it will be possible to search text in PDF documents.
    I have tried it, but it doesn't work.
    Is there a way to make it work in GW 8?
    Thanks,
    Tomislav

    It's still called the document conversation agent on Linux. I would set off
    an indexing run to see if it kicks it all off properly. My PDFs have been
    indexing here for a good long time :)

  • How 2 search inside a PDF document using the firefox internal PDF reader

    Cannot find any way to do a text search inside a PDF document when it is displayed by the builtin PDF player in Firefox.
    If there is a way, how is it done?
    If there isn't a way, it seems an obvious enhancement.

    son of a gun. I've always searched in firefox by hitting slash and typing the search term, but that doesn't seem to work in the pdf reader. I guess, if I had searched for key bindings I coulda figured that out for myself.
    thanks!

  • How to search text in the table?

    Suppose, I've selected some fragment in my document, and I need to find and replace some text in it. Everything is ok, untill I select a part of a table with this text. Does anyone has idea, how to search through the selected cells in the table? Or, just how to iterate them?
    Thanks!

    var doc = app.ActiveDoc;
    var tbl = doc.SelectedTbl;
    // Navigate to the first selected row.
    var row = tbl.FirstRowInTbl;
    while (row.ObjectValid() === 1) {
        if (row.id === tbl.TopRowSelection.id) {
            break;
        row = row.NextRowInTbl;
    // Process the selected rows.
    while (row.ObjectValid() ===1) {
        cell = row.FirstCellInRow;
        while (cell.ObjectValid() === 1) {
            if ((cell.CellColNum >= tbl.LeftColNum) && (cell.CellColNum <= tbl.RightColNum)) {
                // Do something here...
            cell = cell.NextCellInRow;
        if (row.id === tbl.BottomRowSelection.id) {
            break;
        row = row.NextRowInTbl;
    This should do what you want.

  • How to search in a pdf package via command line

    How can I search a specific PDF file within a PDF package via the command line? Previously I have used the following code in VB6 to search a single PDF file successfully.
    acroPath = String(128, " ")        'initialise this string
    resultStatus = FindExecutable(pdfPath, vbNullString, acroPath)
    acroPath = Replace(acroPath, vbNullChar, "")        'Get rid of the null character
    acroPath = """" & Trim$(acroPath) & """"
    cmdLineString = acroPath & " /n /A ""search=" & searchString & """ " & pdfPath
    Call Shell(cmdLineString, vbNormalFocus)
    I now receive this file as part of a PDF package, so how can I amend the command line to search the specific file within the package?
    I only have Reader, not the full blown Acrobat version.

    Sorry forgot to say that I am using Acrobat Reader 8.1 on Win XP SP2

  • 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 Search word in PDF?

    Hi,
    I am developing windows application, which will accept PDF file path as input.
    Users are allowed to  search for the specific word in the PDF and replace with new word.
    I don't have any idea on this. So can any one help me to start with.
    how can i search word in PDF and edit the PDF file.
    Thanks,

    PDF is a not a format that enables replacement of textual content, since it doesn't reflow.  You need to discuss with the person that gave you the job how difficult/impossible that it is.

  • 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,
