Hi,

I'm a researcher at INESC-ID and I'm currently working on an application
that intends to parse ISO standards (stored in PDF files) and store their
text into a database. This implies building some sort of tree with all the
sections and subsections and so on...

Well I'm aware that PDF files don't reflect text structure so I was aiming
for a different approach. Just being able to have the text split into
paragraphs would aready be a massive help. An amazing help would be to have
a way to differ between text styles so as to sort normal text from headings
and all that.

Well I've managed to extract plain text with your API. And with a lot of
effot it would be possible to organize that plain text and provide it with
some structure.

However, I was wondering if your API does not provide an easier way to do
this. Maybe using some sort of object iteration within a page?

Thanks for the help.

Best regards,
