Acrobat does not use an external library, Acrobat is a PDF processor itself.

Acrobat has no Java API.

Acrobat must not be used on a server.

You may may look into The Adobe PDF Library, licensed by Datalogics.

But you would have to write a separate app in C/C++ for the library.

Hi,

Could someone please go through below points and help me understand how can I proceed further.

1) We've Acrobat Adobe Pro tool which is used to convert pdf files of any format(encrypted, protected) into PLAIN readable pdf files.

2) And then we will use these readable pdf files as inputs to our java programs and extract the content from them.

3) When I use our JAVA program to extract the content from these kind of encrypted PDF files, we're getting the output text in symbols and non recognized fonts. So I hope if I use your "SDK\Library\jar" while extracting the content from PDF files, I'll get the content in readable text format. Even when I'm copying the content from pdf and pasting in a text file, the same thing is happening, the pasted content will have symbols and non recognized fonts.

4) We'd be happy if you can let us know about the SDK\Library\jar which Acrobat Adobe PRO is using to convert these encrypted PDF files into PLAIN PDF files, so that we can use the same library in our JAVA programs to convert the encrypted PDF files into plain PDF files and then extract the content in text format.

5) I can see SDK in JAVASCRIPT here "https://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobat/sdk/eula.html", but could not find it in JAVA. Also, I’m not sure whether this will be useful to meet my requirement.

Requesting your assistance at the earliest possible, as it’s very urgent. Thanks in advance

Thanks,

Mahesh

If you negotiate a license for the PDF Library, you will get lots of DLLs. Contact DataLogics. The documentation is also on their web site.

To save a lot of time I will tell you the SDK is useless to you. Acrobat is not for server use. Adobe's server product is Adobe PDF library, licensed by DataLogics. C and C++.
