how to write the content obtained using the method GetPdfText - Anisha - 10-25-2017
In the below code
Set oPDF=CreateObject("LearnQuickTest.ManipulatePDF")
Set FSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
detailvalue=oPDF.GetPdfText("D:\POC\sample.pdf")
detailvalue is a string but when i debug detailvalue is empty string.
When i write 'detailvalue' into a text file its is getting written but not readable using QTP, but when i open text file manually i can see the content
Please advise how to convert the oPDF.GetPdfText("D:\POC\sample.pdf") to a readable string.

Code:
Print oPDF.GetPdfText ("D:\POC\sample.pdf", 1,2) I hope this solution works for you. I have not tried it myself but found several examples and this appears to be the syntax. Also I think some types of PDFs have protection turned on and may not return any text or partial text if this is the case.
In your example:
detailvalue = oPDF.GetPdfText ("D:\POC\sample.pdf", 1,2)
