TextAbsorber does not find text

Aspose.PDF Product Family
1

Hi,

I have problems when using TextAbsorber to extract text from a PDF document.

Some parts are not found.

In the provided sample, you’ll se that the document contains two text fields (<Cont.SE[Id:95650|Ali:G|Tai:P|Comm:Élodie FRANCON> and <Cont.SE[Id:94828|Ali:G|Tai:P|Comm:Rémi DAUBAN>) that are visible but not found with TextAbsorber.
Moreover, the text of these fields is not preserved when copied to ClipBoard.

Other text fields work normally.

Is there any workaround for this ?

Best regards,

Paul

We were able to notice the issue while extracting text with Aspose.PDF for .NET 20.1 using following code snippet:

TextAbsorber ta = new TextAbsorber();
ta.ExtractionOptions = new TextExtractionOptions(TextExtractionOptions.TextFormattingMode.Pure);
Document pdfDocument = new Document(dataDir + "A3144-87760_essai-B.pdf");
pdfDocument.Pages.Accept(ta);
string text = ta.Text;
