Hi Karambir,


Thanks for your inquiry. You are extracting only first TextFragement from TextFragment Collection so your are not getting complete data. Please check following sample code, hopefully it will help you to accomplish the task.

// Source PDF file<o:p></o:p>

Document pdfDocument = new Document(myDir + "asset_102826BuffaloDippingSauceK12.pdf");

TableAbsorber absorber = new TableAbsorber();

// Visit first page with absorber

for (int pages = 1; pages <= pdfDocument.Pages.Count; pages++)

{

absorber.Visit(pdfDocument.Pages[pages]);

// Get access to first table on page, their first cell and text fragments in it

//iterate through each table of pdf

for (int i = 0; i < absorber.TableList.Count; i++)

{

//iterate through each row of table

for (int j = 0; j < absorber.TableList[i].RowList.Count; j++)

{

//iterate through each cell of row

for (int k = 0; k < absorber.TableList[i].RowList[j].CellList.Count; k++)

{

//iterate through each cell to extract data

if (absorber.TableList[i].RowList[j].CellList[k].TextFragments.Count > 0)

{

//TextFragment fragment = absorber.TableList[i].RowList[j].CellList[k].TextFragments[1];

var textFragmentCollection = absorber.TableList[i].RowList[j].CellList[k].TextFragments;

string s = null;

foreach (TextFragment fragment in textFragmentCollection)

{

s = s + fragment.Text;

}

Console.WriteLine("Table {0},Row {1}, Cell {2},Text: {3}", i, j, k, s);

}

}

}

}

}

Hello! I am doing exactly the process you describe above, however, the table absorber is only seeing 3 or 4 fragments of the cells. I have cells where I can manually count 10 fragments but it only reads the first 3 or 4. Any suggestions?
