The code snippet in your message contained collected no text and printed no text. Thus, I assume, that code did not produce the output. The code in the attached project, on the other hand, collects and outputs text from the accompanying PDF. It first does a funny conversion, though: (Encoding.UTF8.GetString(ASCIIEncoding.Convert(Encoding.Default, Encoding.UTF8, Encoding.Default.GetBytes(text)))) Such a conversion should not be necessary if the text from the PDF can be properly read. Here is your actual problem, though: The PDF does not seem to contain the correct information for text extraction at all, just try to do it using Adobe Acrobat (which is quite good at text extraction), for me it returns assorted symbols only. Therefore, I'm afraid for PDFs like the one given you either have to resort to a custom extraction routine with a very special byte to text conversion, or you have to use OCR.
