Hi!

TextAbsorber dies after it consumes all available memory. PDF files are attached.

Thank you! :slight_smile:

Sample code as usual:

Dim License As New Aspose.Pdf.License()
License.SetLicense(“Aspose.Total.lic”)
'Instantiate PdfExtractor object
Dim extractor As Aspose.Pdf.Facades.PdfExtractor = New Aspose.Pdf.Facades.PdfExtractor()
'Set Password for input PDF file
extractor.Password = “”
'Bind the input PDF document to extractor
extractor.BindPdf(FileName)
'Extract text from the input PDF document
extractor.ExtractText()
'Save the extracted text to a text file
Dim OutputFile As String
Dim SaveFileDlg As New SaveFileDialog
If SaveFileDlg.ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
OutputFile = SaveFileDlg.FileName
extractor.GetText(OutputFile)
Dim sss As String = My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText(OutputFile, System.Text.Encoding.Unicode)
Process.Start(OutputFile)
End If

Hi there,

Thanks for your inquiry. I have tested your scenario with shared documents using Aspose.Pdf for .NET 10.9.0 and unable to notice OutOfMemoryException with KK17_2015_Oversigt.pdf. However, other two files are throwing the exception, so logged a ticket PDFNEWNET-39496 for further investigation and resolution. We will keep you updated via this thread regarding the issue status.

We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Best Regards,

The issues you have found earlier (filed as PDFNET-39496) have been fixed in Aspose.PDF for .NET 26.2.
