Please Help.. (extracting bold words from pdf)

[Veli Hasanli <vv...@gmail.com>]

Hi.

I can not use external fonts file for extracting bold words from pdf file..
There is no any problem in extracting bold words from any pdf file that is
written in standart font type.
Let me explain my  question on an example:
(All files are attached to this email except one pdf  file.. It is more
than 5 mb.. and I could not send it via email.. Please download it from:
http://www.share.az/ldimjsxxc5dh/Azerbaycan_dilinin_izahli_lugeti___II_hisse__.pdf.html
)
1- I can extract the bold words from deneme.pdf by using my codes in
PdftenSozCikarma.java
2- But I can not do the same thing for myPdfDocument.pdf
myPdfDocument.pdf i s wrintten in the Az_Times_Lat font. (included in
AzFonts.rar).. You can easily check up by copying some words to MS-Word and
choose Az_Times_Lat. (Of course at the first step you must add that fot to
the FONTS Folder in Control Panel)

PLease help me..
Thanks a lot.
Best regards

There are different issues:

1) you can't use the font name to determine if it is a bold font
2) you can't simply exchange a font by loading another one
3) Do the "adobe-test" if you can't extract the text of a specific pdf using 
PDFBox. Open the document using acrobat reader and try to copy&paste the
text to an text editor. If it doesn't work it won't work using any other pdf tool.
