Hello All,

Dim dlg As OpenFileDialog = New OpenFileDialog

If (dlg.ShowDialog = DialogResult.OK) Then

'open document

Dim pdfDocument As New Aspose.Pdf.Document(dlg.FileName)

Dim extractedText As String

For Each pdfPage As Page In pdfDocument.Pages

Using textStream As New MemoryStream()

'create text device

Dim textDevice As New Devices.TextDevice()

'set text extraction options - set text extraction mode (Raw or Pure)

Dim textExtOptions As New TextExtractionOptions(TextExtractionOptions.TextFormattingMode.Pure)

textDevice.ExtractionOptions = textExtOptions

'convert a particular page and save text to the stream

textDevice.Process(pdfPage, textStream)

'close memory stream

textStream.Close()

'get text from memory stream

extractedText = Encoding.Unicode.GetString(textStream.ToArray())

End Using

Next pdfPage

TextBox1.Text = extractedText
