Parsing PDF Form data #43

Open geochasm opened 10 years ago

geochasm commented 10 years ago

I am working on parsing a pdf form. The pdfparse functions work - my document is parsed. However, I only receive the text surrounding the form fields. I have entered data in the form fields and saved the form, but I am not able to access the text saved in the form fields.

Can pdfparse access form data?

Thanks

Is this problem solved yet?

k00ni commented 3 years ago

It would be helpful if someone could test this matter with current master version of the library. Is it confirmed that #135 is a duplicate? If so, its sample PDF could be used here, right?

Hello, Is there a way to get the list of all name fields? I think every form field should have a field name if we get a field name then maybe we can debug the field data

k00ni commented 1 year ago

No, not to my knowledge.
