The rise of documents in PDF format makes it possible for many documents to be delivered in PDF format, and if you get a document in this format, you need to use some text content in it, some people will copy and paste it, but if you need more text content, obviously a page-by-page copy operation is a waste of time. , if you want to extract the contents of the PDF text, you can convert the file directly to the TXT format. In general, Adobe Reader, which is used to view PDF files, can not only view the contents of a PDF document, but also extract the contents of the text separately. So there is no need to use the copy and paste method when the text content is needed. First open the document in Adobe Reader, choose Save As other on the File menu, and then select the text (X) option, and a Save As dialog box will pop up, and you can save it directly.
This method is only suitable for extracting the text content inside, for images and other types of content can not be extracted, and converted to txt text, the layout will be different from the original PDF file, some of the location of the content will appear garbled. ~~~~~ In addition, we can convert the PDF format into a txt text document by converting the document format, which can also extract the text content in the PDF. The difference between this method and the conversion is that the converted document is consistent with the original PDF file layout, which is convenient for later viewing. First Open the PDF converter, select the file inside the TXT, and then add the PDF file to the Conversion tool list, and set the document save path, the last point to start the conversion wait for the document to complete the automatic conversion.
Both of these methods can output the text content in the PDF file to txt, but the conversion results are somewhat different, especially in the table section. These can be compared to find out the difference between the two.
