I have written a program to parse the pdf into text. Im getting the output in the console,but im not able to write it into a fle. This is the code that i have done:
public class PDFTextParser {
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException {
PDFTextStripper pdfStripper = null;
COSDocument cosDoc = null;
try {
File file = new File("1.pdf");
PDDocument pdDoc = PDDocument.load(file);
pdfStripper = new PDFTextStripper();
String parsedText = pdfStripper.getText(pdDoc);
System.out.println(parsedText);
FileWriter out = new FileWriter("output.txt");
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String line = in.readLine();
while (line!= null) {
out.append(line);
out.append("\n");
}
out.close();
}catch (IOException e) {
e.printStackTrace();}
}
}
the output is:

and the parsed pdf text is appearing in the console..but i get an empty file as output
you have already got the text from the PDF, just write it to the file, the rest of the code trys to get input from user (ex, keyboard) you don't need it, just use below code:
String parsedText = pdfStripper.getText(pdDoc);
System.out.println(parsedText);
FileWriter out = new FileWriter("output.txt");
out.append(parsedText);
out.close();
//no need for this code, it reads input from user (using keyboard)
/*
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
String line = in.readLine();
while (line!= null) {
out.append(line);
out.append("\n");
}
out.close();
