Subject: Getting the text from a PDF file
Hello,
I would like to extract the whole text from a PDF document. Can you
recommend a perl module that can do this under Windows?
I searched on cpan.org and I found very many modules, I tested a few of
them, but none of them was able to extract the text, which can be seen
well with Acrobat Reader, but they extracted only garbage, or nothing, or
just gave an error, or they were incompatible with Windows...
Thank you very much.

Here is a link from this group that explains how to using 'xpdf', (not a
Perl module).
