Property Value

To read the text objects from a document, use the ParsePageText method. The fonts found in the page will be set in the in Fonts property of the returned DocumentPageText object.

The text characters found in the page will be returned in the Characters property. Each DocumentCharacter object in the list will have its DocumentCharacter.FontIndex property set to an index to an item in the Fonts list.

The text words found in the page will be returned in the Words property. Each DocumentWord object in the list will have its DocumentWord.FontIndex property set to the index of an item in the Fonts list. Also, the DocumentWord.FirstCharacterIndex and DocumentWord.LastCharacterIndex will contain the indices of the characters of the word into the Characters list.

The overall text string (without any extra properties) can be obtained using the DocumentPageText.BuildText method.

For an example, refer to DocumentPageText.
