Not getting text data from pdf file using itextsharp in c#

Omprakash1981 asked:

Hi,

I am trying to read text data from pdf(created using adobe Distiller). My objective is to find the font size, font family and the text of the pdf.

iTextsharp is not giving the correct text as it is in the pdf. If pdf is created by other tool(expert pdf) then it is giving correct result. Please help

Tags: C#, Itextsharp

Treat my content as plain text, not as HTML
