This is something I am looking at doing and would like to know if someone has already achieved this or if it is just muy loco to attempt. I want to get the text and the relative coordinate position say from the bottom left corner of a pdf for each text value.
Has anyone attempted this and succeeded? If not is it just not possible and why? Do I need to use an adobe api or a .net .dll that someone has written for this purpose? My plan is to use the parsed information as a dictionary in Revit with the revit api 2017+
cheers,
Phil
