Work with Text in PDF
Extracting text allows data within PDFs to be analyzed, organized, or processed in external applications. Extracted text can be indexed, making it searchable across databases or content management systems. This improves document retrieval and allows for faster access to specific information, especially in large document archives. By extracting text and saving it in a simpler format (like plain text or XML), users can reduce file sizes, making them easier to share or distribute.
