You will need a sophisticated OCR engine to reprocess the page. iText does not
have one.

You are right. But visually we can see that there is different sizes for
heading and body of the page.
Actually I want to somehow detect the Font of BILL heading in the page and then
do some processing.
So I was researching and hoping to get some idea, how to do it.
Thanks for your help though.
Thanks,

Well, in that document, there is only one font - Courier. Which doesn't
really tell you anything :(.

Hi,
I have some pdf's created from image files. Now I need the different Fonts used
and the font data as well. Like size, font name etc.
My sample pdf is something like the one I attached.
Thanks,

What does it mean to "get a font"? Just the name of the font? The name in
the PDF? The original name? The Postscript name? other?!
Or did you mean the font data??

Hi Everyone,
I want to get the different fonts used in a PDF while extracting text from it.
How do I do this using iText?
Has anyone have any experience with this or has any idea?
