我正在尝试从PDF文件中获取所有单词及其位置坐标。我已经成功地使用Acrobat API在.NET上完成了这个任务。现在,我想使用免费的API(如iTextSharp)来实现同样的功能(.NET版本)。我可以使用PRTokeniser逐行获取文本,但是我不知道如何获取每行的坐标,更不用说每个单词的坐标了。
我的账户太新了,无法回复Mark Storer的答案。
我无法直接使用LocationTextExtracationStrategy(我认为我可能做错了些什么)。当我使用LocationTextExtracationStrategy时,我能够获取文本,但我无法弄清楚如何获取每个字符串(或每行字符串)的坐标。
最终,我创建了LocationTextExtracationStrategy的子类,并公开了我想要的数据,因为它在内部确实具有该数据。
我还希望它在.net中可用... 所以这里是我编写的C#版本。

您需要使用com.itextpdf.text.pdf.parser包中的类。它们跟踪当前的转换、颜色、字体等等。
不幸的是,这些类没有在新书中涵盖,所以您只能使用JavaDoc,并将其从Java转换为C#,这并不太难。
因此,您需要将LocationTextExtractionStrategy
插入到PdfTextExtractor
中。
这将为您提供字符串和位置如其在pdf中呈现的那样。您需要将其解释为单词(如果需要,还有段落,哎哟)。
请记住,PDF不知道文本布局。每个字符都可以单独放置。如果有人愿意(他们必须是一些塔可饼组合盘的缺少),他们可以在给定页面上绘制所有的“a”,然后所有的“b”,依此类推。
更现实的是,有人可能会画出页面上使用FontA的所有文本,然后画出所有使用FontB的文本,等等。这可以产生更有效的内容流。请记住,italic和bold(以及bold italic)都是单独的字体。如果有人将一个词的一部分标记为粗体(或其他),那么该逻辑词就需要被拆分成至少两个绘图命令。
但是很多人只是按照逻辑顺序写出他们的文本到PDF中……这对于那些困在解析中的人来说非常方便,但您不能指望所有的PDF都是如此。因为您肯定会遇到一些奇怪的情况。
