Hello, you Can try PDF XML Converter(P2X) Which extract the text information from the pdf file and output them into a xml file. All the functions were encapsulated into a COM component, the exposed methods/interface is as same as PDF Plain Text Extractor(P2T), but the output file is in XML format. You can integrate it into your own application and redistribute it royalty free. The output XML format was defined in PDFDocument.xsd

Output XML sample

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<PDFDocument>
<PDFInfo>
<title><![CDATA[ PDF Reference ]]></Title>

Hello , After fooling around with several shareware programs that only convert the first few pages of an Acrobat file, or only work for a few days, I found an open source utility on sourceforge that worked so nicely that I wanted to give it wider publicity among people who might find it handy. See http://pdftohtml.sourceforge.net and http://sourceforge.net/projects/pdftohtml. A Windows binary is available.
