Hi,

PDF doesn't store the data exactly as provided during generation. Sometimes, when a font or characters are not in the PDF char format, it converts it into BITMAP image and prints it in the file.

Therefore even if you convert it into internal table, there is no surety that you will get accurate results.

Hi Parvez ,

Thanks for Reply.

But the Above code works for Interactive PDF.

Not normal PDF.
