PDFlib TET (Text and Image Extraction Toolkit) reliably extracts text, images and metadata from PDF documents. TET makes available the text contents of a PDF as Unicode strings, plus detailed color, glyph and font information as well as the position on the page. Raster images are extracted in common image formats. TET optionally converts PDF documents to an XML-based format called TETML which contains text and metadata as well as resource information.
TET contains advanced content analysis algorithms for determining word boundaries, grouping text into columns and removing redundant text. Using the integrated pCOS interface you can retrieve arbitrary objects from PDF, such as metadata, interactive elements, etc.
With PDFlib TET you can:
Implement the PDF indexer for a search engine
Repurpose text and images in PDFs
Convert the contents of PDFs to other formats
Process PDFs based on their contents, e.g. splitting based on headings (requires PDFlib+PDI in addition to TET)
Check wether an area on the page is empty or contains any text, images, or vector graphics
TET Product Family
The TET family comprises the following products:
Text and Image Extraction Toolkit (TET), the core product for extracting text, images, metadata and other elements from PDF.
TET PDF IFilter extracts text and metadata from PDF documents and makes it available to search and retrieval software on Windows. It is available as a separate product and is suitable for use with Microsoft search products, e.g. Windows Search, SharePoint and SQL Server.
TET Plugin for Adobe Acrobat, a free utility for extracting text and images from PDF. It can be used to evaluate TET interactively.
PDFlib TET 5 - New Features
The first version of PDFlib TET has been published in 2002. Since the initial release TET has solved the PDF content extraction problems of thousands of customers around the world. With the major release TET 5 we have further improved our solid extraction tool. Besides many PDF processing improvements there are many significant functional enhancements, mainly in the areas of image extraction, color retrieval and TETML contents.
What's new in PDFlib TET 5.0?
The features below are new or have been considerably improved in TET 5.
Text retrieval:
retrieve fill and stroke color of text
improved layout detection
honor vector graphics to improve page and table layout recognition
support vertical font metrics for CJK text
Image retrieval:
significantly enhanced merging of fragmented images, e.g. for rotated images
improved image handling for many special cases and rare PDF image flavors
extract image masks and soft masks
merge and convert JPEG 2000-compressed images
preserve spot color in extracted TIFF images
restrict image extraction to user-selected area
collect XMP image metadata stored in non-standard locations by InDesign
Page processing:
optionally ignore artifacts (irrelevant content) in Tagged PDF
honor layers (optional content) to avoid extraction of invisible content
honor clipping paths to avoid extraction of invisible content
check whether an area on the page is empty or contains any text, image, or vector graphics
TETML:
TETML includes fill and stroke color of glyphs
TETML includes information about interactive elements including annotations, form fields, bookmarks, actions, jаvascript, signatures, etc.
TETML includes color space and ICC profile details
TETML includes information about layers and page labels
pCOS PDF information retrieval:
pCOS pseudo objects for ICC profile details and image masking properties
pCOS pseudo objects for form fields
Other areas:
additional checks and heuristics for damaged and non-conforming PDF input
updated TET language bindings, programming samples, and TET connectors
new options for improved PDF processing control
many improvements in existing TET features
