Re: How to parse PDFby andreas1234567 (Vicar) |

An external vendor generates over 100 PDF files every Sun.The best long term solution could be to convince the vendor to export data in a format more suited for parsing than PDF, such as XML or CSV. A PDF file is often a combination of vector graphics, text, and raster graphics. This makes it significantly harder to parse than markup languages.
