Read every page's text in one call

Convenience wrapper that returns the document's text content one string per page, matching the shape of pdftools::pdf_doc_text(). Each element is the concatenated text of every text run on the corresponding page, joined with "\n" between runs.

Usage

pdf_doc_text(doc, password = NULL)

Arguments

doc

A pdfium_doc from pdf_doc_open(), or a character path.

password

Optional password for encrypted PDFs when doc is a path. Ignored when doc is already an open pdfium_doc.

Value

Character vector of length pdf_page_count(doc). Each element is UTF-8 encoded.

Details

Internally walks the document with pdf_text_runs() to reuse the batched text-page load.

See also

pdf_text_runs() for run-level structure (font, bounding box).

Examples

fixture <- system.file("extdata", "fixtures", "shapes.pdf",
  package = "pdfium"
)
if (nzchar(fixture)) pdf_doc_text(fixture)
#> [1] "Hello"
