Is it possible to retrieve font color for each character from a PDF using PDFBox As per my previous question's solution : How to extract Font color using PDFBOX java? I have proceeded till retrieving font attributes below is my code snippet
PDDocument doc = null;
doc = PDDocument.load("C:\\Users\\Desktop\\abc.pdf");
PDFStreamEngine engine = new PDFStreamEngine(ResourceLoader.loadProperties("org/apache/pdfbox/resources/PageDrawer.properties"));
PDPage page = (PDPage)doc.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages().get(0);
engine.processStream(page, page.findResources(), page.getContents().getStream());
PDGraphicsState graphicState = engine.getGraphicsState();
System.out.println(graphicState.getNonStrokingColor().getJavaColor());
doc.close();
Actuall PDF contain only the following text : MessageHi
where Message would contain Blue as font color and Hi
would hold green , when I execute above piece of code it displays me
java.awt.Color[r=0,g=255,b=0] ----> green
Similarly i have tried with below piece of code to retrieve each character and their respective font attributes but , while displaying color it always displays java.awt.Color[r=0,g=0,b=0] --- black color
public class PrintTextLocations extends PDFTextStripper {
public PrintTextLocations() throws IOException {
super.setSortByPosition(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
{
PDDocument document = null;
document = PDDocument.load("C:\\Users\\Desktop\\abc.pdf");
List allPages = document.getDocumentCatalog().getAllPages();
PrintTextLocations printer = new PrintTextLocations();
for (int i = 0; i < allPages.size(); i++)
{
PDPage page = (PDPage) allPages.get(i);
System.out.println("Processing page: " + i);
PDStream contents = page.getContents();
if (contents != null)
{
printer.processStream(page, page.findResources(), page.getContents().getStream());
}
}
document.close();
}
protected void processTextPosition(TextPosition text){
try {
System.out.println("String[" + text.getXDirAdj() + ","
+ text.getYDirAdj() + " fs=" + text.getFontSize() + " xscale="
+ text.getXScale() + " height=" + text.getHeightDir()
+ " space=" + text.getWidthOfSpace() + " width="
+ text.getWidthDirAdj() + "]" + text.getCharacter() + getGraphicsState().getNonStrokingColor().getJavaColor());
} catch (IOException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Can any one help me out to retrieve font color for each character pls
Thanks
