Message: [QUOTE="flebber, post: 4135515"] okay thanks I thought that when I set content here def getPDFContent(path): content = "C:\Components-of-Dot-NET.pdf" that i was defining where it is. but yeah I updated script to below and it works. That is the contents are displayed to the interpreter. How do I output to a .txt file? import pyPdf def getPDFContent(path): content = "C:\Components-of-Dot-NET.pdf" # Load PDF into pyPDF pdf = pyPdf.PdfFileReader(file(path, "rb")) # Iterate pages for i in range(0, pdf.getNumPages()): # Extract text from page and add to content content += pdf.getPage(i).extractText() + "\n" # Collapse whitespace content = " ".join(content.replace(u"\xa0", " ").strip().split()) return content print getPDFContent(r"C:\Components-of-Dot-NET.pdf").encode("ascii", "ignore") [/QUOTE]
