Your PDF is all images and no text.

  PdfTextExtractor.GetTextFromPage returns an empty string on this PDF 
  file.
  

  Hello iText Support
 
I've struggled with this for a 
  day or so and wonder if you could help me ...  I have a PDF which your 
  software
will open and parse without throwing an exception, but won't 
  return any text.  Between you and me, I think there
is an image within 
  the PDF which is causing the headache.
 
Attached is the C# 
  console program (zipped as an ordinary txt file) I am using (which is one of 
  yours btw) together
with the PDF which I am trying 
  to extract the text from.  If you open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat 
  reader it looks ok,
but as you can see it has plenty of 
  images.
 
I can open many, many other PDFs with this same program 
  without any issues, so I think its this PDF file which is
the 
  problem.
 
Any help or information you can give me will be much 
  appreciated; the itextsharp.dll I am using is Version 5.1.3.0 
  btw
 
Many thanks
 
 
Richard 
Hammond
