php读取pdf文件乱码,使用php读取pdf文件

Hi,

I have a bulk of pdf documents. I want to read that using php script. I searched a lot, but everyone is about creating pdf files. Here I dont want to create pdf file but I want to read it. Is there any way to read it php?

You can easily read the contents of a PDF file using a command-line utility like Pdftotext which you can call through exec.

This is an example of what i mean, actually using system

system("pdftotext your.pdf /tmp/txtfile.txt");

$text = file_get_contents("/tmp/txtfile.txt");

EDIT

didn't know about the dash syntax - this is even better:

$content = shell_exec('pdftotext your.pdf -');

This does require pdftotext to be installed on your server though. On a CentOS server this would be:

yum install xpdf
