( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
Hi, the solution i've seen is to use:
$doc->getPageContent($pagenum);
instead of:
$doc->getPageText($pagenum);

But even if the solution sounds simple. There is work for you to do.

You will have to parse the return value of getPageContent.

Here is an Possible Example of PageContent:

9.9213 0 Td Content Tj

The 2 Numbers before the Td tell you the Position of the Content.

UPDATE: This gives you a HashRef of your Page:
$doc->getPageContentTree($pagenum)

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
