Extract text from PDF file

[TheBugSlayer]

Is there any component that allows text extraction from a PDF file? I have done something similar with PDF forms but not sure how to implement a solution withoug them.

Thanks.

Hi TheBugSlayer,

you'll need acrobat reader on the PC though
you can download full pdf file spec from here :

hope this sets you on the right track,
