Hi Friends,
I want to open and read a pdf file from disk And save this content of pdf
file into .txt file.
In short I want to convert content of pdf into .txt formate and save this
text file on desk.
Thanks.

Alex,

This is often asked in these dotnet newsgroups. Although it has less to do
with ADONET and will you find probably more easy an answer in one of the
languages groups as

microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb or Csharp etc.

However in my opinion is the best answer to get the official SDK from Adobe,
that you can find on their site. (It is not free).

I hope this helps something,

It also depends on the content you're trying to convert. If the source
document for the pdf is a scanned document which is basically an image file
the result would be an empty text file.
