Hi,
I'm trying to extract text data from the following file

http://www.bluecatnetworks.com/download_files/careers/QA_Software_Automation_Developer.pdf
( the file is stored locally )
The script as follows
use CAM::PDF; my $filename = 'QA_Software_Automation_Developer.pdf'; my $pdf = CAM::PDF->new($filename); my $pagenos = $pdf->numPages(); for (my $i=1;$i<=$pagenos;$i++) { $page_text .= ' '. $pdf->getPageText($i); } print "page :: $page_text\n";
I'm Getting the following error,
Can't call method "numPages" on an undefined value at readpdf.pl line
Is there any other CPAN module to parse this kind of PDFs
Thanks
Jey
