Poppler doesn't expose the necessary "low level" APIs that you would need to get access to them, if present. You'll need to get down to the original Xpdf Object classes - and to use them properly you will also need an indepth understanding of the PDF format and the relevant sections of the documention.
But yes, it is possible.

HOWEVER, it is optional and therefore many PDF documents do not contain the necessary elements. And, as pointed out, without the presence of such elements already in the PDF - the best you can do is GUESS. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] On Behalf Of [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 7:04 AM To: amit aggarwal Cc: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [poppler] Extract pdf Hi, I think PDF is a page description language and defines nothing for semantic structure; how to store the titles of section, subsection, figure and tables. Therfore, I guess, poppler cannot extract - because, PDF does not have. Is there any reliable framework defining such and your target documentations follow?
