    PDF parsing

    Which is the best package to parse a PDF file ?

    I just want the alphanumeric data present in a PDF file.

    Have you searched the CPAN archive yet? It should be the first place you go when searching for a module to do something.

    If you do, you will find the PDF::Parse module listed on the first page.

    Before you ask, I have never played with the module so I would go ahead and read it and see if it can help you.

      I think CAM::PDF is better.

        Ok.... there ya go. If that module seems more like what you need then I would say run with it.
