In Acrobat Reader6.0, I can click "save as text" in menu bar.
My problem is that I need to do this in command line environment now.. Is there any possible solution?
Because we need to pass the text to a perl script to do some text processing task, then import the final result to MS SQL SERVER via perl's DBI module. (in window 2000 server)
The flow is like:PDF->TXT->data base.
If we can do PDF->TXT in command line, we can automate the overall process. But it seems to be a tough task..
Some other tools(eg. xpdf) can do pdf->txt job, but the text format is different, thus they can't be used in our perl script.
