Anyone Know of any C# alternative to TiKa able to extract text from HTML,PDF, etc..?
I’ve got a similar need… I’ve got a .Net project where I need to pull text out of various files (.XLS, .DOC, .PDF, etc), for indexing with Lucene.Net
This blog post seems to be exactly what I’m after: A .Net wrapper around the .jar file!
I’m implementing it now, but if it doesn’t work then I’ll update my answer here…
Edit: Ok, it’s up, running, and working well (if a little slowly). There’s some pretty nasty dependency wrangling with the IKVM bits, but it’s the best alternative that I’ve found.
