Brief Introduction of PDF Extractor SDK

In this session, we will be going to understand PDF Extractor SDK in brief. Since the PDF was first introduced in the early 90s, it shows the tremendous adoption rates and became a primary tool for record-keeping, communication, collaboration, and transactions across many industries in today’s time.

Our PDF Extractor SDK is good to go solution for extracting business data. It is a very advanced text extractor that automatically extracts data from PDF including scanned documents without any additional software required. Using this SDK we allow the developers to convert their PDF to Excel or JSON or CSV and so on.

How to Extract Structured Data

We at ByteScout really work hard to ensure development with the PDF Extractor SDK is the best experience possible. Now let’s see some of the features and benefits of this SDK. First, due to the high-performance engine, PDF Extractor SDK extracts millions of documents in a minute.

Extracting structured data from PDF documents and creating a smart index using this SDK allows you to search through millions of documents quickly. One can easily read or convert PDF documents of multiple language characters used in it. It works seamlessly with all character encodings. PDF Extractor can even process damaged files.

Sometimes PDF shows correct text but when you copy the damaged one you will not be able to paste it properly or you can't see that content. But this SDK repairs damage text even if it's not visible. One can easily merge or split documents using this SDK for easier management and you can convert your PDF document to excel, JSON, CSV, and so on.

With this SDK you can also protect your PDF from being copied or searched by converting the text content to an image. This converted file can retain not only the text but also the formatting fonts and colors. As we have already seen in the previous session, how PDF multi-tool can easily extract the text from scanned documents using AI-powered OCR.

Extract Text from Scanned Documents

In the same way, this SDK can also extract text from scanned documents resided within the PDF using a built-in OCR engine with multiple language support. The most powerful feature of this product is a mix of sophisticated technologies we use when developing the tools.

New sensitive data suite features are included in PDF Extractor SDK which analyzes, detects, and removes sensitive data and any personal information from the PDF doc. Dot net capabilities enable vast customization. We support dot net from 2.0 to the latest version.

This SDK works with the dot net, asp.net, and also available as ActiveX or com object through dot net interrupt wrapper for use from Delphi, VC++, javascript, and other languages. Finally, you will find a bunch of source codes and documentation that makes it easy to use this SDK.

Extract Unstructured Data

PDF Extractor SDK comes in two flavors, first, is the desktop-based which is an on-premise solution and the one is a web API based solution. PDF Extractor SDK is easily accessible through the API in c sharp, python and javascript, and many more languages. Their interactive API documentation explains the functionality of each of the endpoints.
