DocumentTextExtractor

Simple C# library for extracting text and metadata from .docx, .pptx, and .xlsx files

NuGet Version NuGet

DocumentTextExtractor provides simple methods for extracting text and metadata from .docx, .pptx, and .xlsx files.

New in v1.0.x

  • Initial release
  • Support for docx, pptx, xlsx, and pdf

Disclaimer

This library has been tested on a limited set of documents. It is highly likely that documents exist this from which the library, in its current state, cannot extract text.

The PDF implementation relies upon PDFSharp and PDFPlumber. The latter is written in Python and requires that you have installed Python and used pip to install the pdfplumber package.
