Specifying the encoding type of the text files produced as output

Aspose.PDF Product Family

Using your PDF kit for .Net, I have created a program to generate text files. I have noticed the encoding type for the text files being output is "unicode". How would one be able to choose a different type such as ansi?

Thanks,

Hi Robert,

As far as I understand, you’re trying to extract text from a PDF file and then save to the text file. If so, please have a look at the code snippets on this link. You can specify the encoding type in the ExtractText method. Please try it at your end.

I hope this helps. If you have any further questions, please do let us know.
Regards,

As I was looking at the code in the link, it was pointed out to me by another individual here that all I had to do was to indicate the encoding in the ExtractText method, i.e.; extractor.ExtractText(Encoding.ASCII). The output is now as I want it to be.

Thanks for your help.
