Prize: One subscription to the PDF edition of the PHP Architect magazine		 PDF is a popular document format that allows including complex graphic structures.

However, if you just want to extract the text contained in a PDF document to perform some kind of text processing, that is not a trivial task.

This class implements a pure PHP solution for extract text from PDF documents. It parses a PDF document and extracts only the text that it contains.
