Convert PDF to html/text

Post by dimxasnewfrozen »

I have an upload process that allows PDF files to be saved on the server (linux server). In this process, I'd like to strip the content to plain text or html and save it in a table to make it searchable and what not.

After some time searching Google I found xpdf but have no idea how to use it since there's almost no documentation. I was just wondering if there are any other solutions. Otherwise I guess I'll figure how to use xpdf.

Thanks
