Is there anyway to use php to parse a pdf file and extract text from
the document? I have been looking around for a few days now and still
really havent found much.....


If anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi,
The problem is nobody I know from forums could have them work !

I tried myself but it always returns an empty array...

Please tell us if you get more info on this...
