Hi,

What would be the easiest way to extract web links like "http://" or "www.site.com" and email links like "mailto:mail@domain.com" or "mail@domain.com" from an existing PDF document?

The GetAnnotStrProperty(111) would retrieve the annotation link value.

I am looking for a way to extract those "web-like" links that a PDF reader would represent as web links and ask to open a web browser or start the default email client.

Hi Zarko!

You need this page:
http://www.quickpdflibrary.com/help/quickpdf/AnnotationsAndHotspotLinks.php
Additional there was an older newsletter from Rowan or Karl explaining how to separate these links.
I think you should go on the official supportpages. There you'll find these things.

Cheers, Ingo

Ingo,

Thanks. I'm aware of the Annotations related function.

I'm looking for the best way to extract text and look for "web-alike"  patterns :)

Hi,

brute force ?
GetPageText or direct access equivalent method and then search.
If all links have same font or colour search would be simple.

Hi!

I don't think that GetPageText will work in every case.
With GetPageText you'll get things like "please klick on this link to enter the website"
but you won't get the real link behind.

You can do this things by yourself, too.
I've made an Unencryption and search for things like http and so on in the real file-content.

Cheers, Ingo
