[jira] [Closed] (PDFBOX-1066) There is no functionlaity of reading the text line by line with its input field

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-1066?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Andreas Lehmkühler closed PDFBOX-1066.
--------------------------------------
    Resolution: Not a Problem
      Assignee: Andreas Lehmkühler

PDFs aren't organized in lines. So, if you want to read a pdf line by line you have to extract the whole text first. It should be easy to process that result line by line without PDFBox.

> But I have perticuler requierment of reading the texts and its input type. Do we have any class/method which can resolve this issue. 
> Its very urgent.
