I've some CDroms with semiconductor datasheets on them but all as pdf with
file names not relating to the items. There is no overall listing of whats
on these disks and can only find out by suck it and see on the front-page
built-in search facility 1 by 1 or read each pdf file 1 by 1.
Curiously windows explorer search for text can see text on these pdf files
including the item numbers but viewing the pdf file on a Hex reader this
text is not viewable. Anyone know a way round this as I may as well chuck
them otherwise.
I've pdf2text reader , would it be possible to sequentially access this
reader within a Visual Basic or Word macro to convert the first page/ line/s
of each pdf and save to file/s
