To all,
 
I recently became aware of iText and have successfully used it to write PDF-documents from text.  However, now I need to go the other way.  I'd like to read an existing PDF-document and create output.  The FAQ page answers the question
 
 
with the answer
 
No, the pdf format is just a canvas where text and graphics are placed without any structure information. As such there aren't any 'iText-objects' in a PDF file. For instance: you can't retrieve a table object from a PDF file. Tables are formed by placing text and lines at selected places.
 
I understand this and probably should just accept it at face value, but I thought that I'd ask anyway.  There is a PdfReader class.  Isn't there anyway of reading the file and writing some if not all of it's textual features out?
 
Thx * rgds
