  • Please keep in mind that CAM::PDF::PageText is just a crude heuristic! It's basically rendering the PDF in memory and looking at which characters end up close to each other. Don't expect it to produce quality output on arbitrary PDFs. – Chris Dolan Aug 22 '13 at 19:31
  • @ChrisDolan is there anyway to do it – backtrack Aug 23 '13 at 03:34

Try out this

my $pageone_tree = $pdf->getPageContentTree($_);

  • Or just use `$pdf->getPageText($pagenum)` which is a convenience function to wrap the call to `getPageContentTree` and `CAM::PDF::PageText`. (I'm the CAM::PDF author) – Chris Dolan Aug 22 '13 at 19:28
