Subject: Re: [iText-questions] Viewing table attributes
You start with the root which then has either an array or a
dict. Each element then has kids of various types. Are you traversing
this accordingly?
Same issue the "keys" - the spec clearly says they can be
various types.
Have you read chapter 14.7 of ISO 32000-1?

Yes, and it shows up when I convert to XML as well. Perhaps I am
missing something when I traverse. Currently, I only check to see if the
structure tree node contains a PdfArray or another PdfDictionary. Is
there another case that I am missing?
Also, just to repeat my previous question, how do you retrieve
the keys "Scope", "RowSpan", "ColSpan", etc. from the table?
Unfortunately, they are not a PdfName type and therefore I am left a bit
confused.
Thank you for your help!

Are you sure the PDF has a structured table? Does one show up
in the Tags panel in Adobe Acrobat?

I suppose I was ambiguous in my previous post.
I have the structure tree root and am traversing through it,
checking to see if each child contains a PdfName.Table. However, this
always returns false, even though it is correctly traversing through the
tree. Does anyone know where the table is located?
Also, how do you retrieve the keys "Scope", "RowSpan",
"ColSpan", etc. from the table? Unfortunately, they are not a PdfName
type and therefore I am left a bit confused.
Thank you again.

Thank you Leonard for your response.
I've been able to extract the structure tree as a PdfDictionary,
but I've been stuck trying to locate the table / table attributes from
it. How do you go about parsing the structure tree?
Thank you again.

You need to locate the Structure Tree in the PDF, parse it and
analyze it as you wish. All the details are in that document...

Subject: [iText-questions] Viewing table attributes
Hi all,
I'm looking for some pointers on how to view attributes of a
table using iText. These include: scope, id, summary, rowspan, colspan,
as outlined by section 14.8.5.7 of the PDF ISO 32000 documentation
located here:
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.
pdf
Does anyone know how this information is embedded in the file? I
am not aiming to edit the PDF using this information, I simply plan on
running evaluative tests on them.
Could anyone help me? Thank you very much.
