I used iText 5
to create a nice looking report which includes some tables and graphs. I wonder if iText lets you convert PDF to HTML and if so .. how can one do it?
I believe previous versions of iText
allowed it, but in iText 5
i was not able to find a way to do this.
No. iText has never converted PDF to HTML, only the reverse.
Have you had a look at http://www.jpedal.org/pdf_to_html_conversion.php - there is currently a free beta.
Possible to do with Apache Tika (it uses Apache PDFBox under the hood):
public String pdfToHtml(InputStream content) {
PDDocument pddDocument = PDDocument.load(content);
PDFText2HTML stripper = new PDFText2HTML("UTF-8");
return stripper.getText(pddDocument);
}
