Hopefully this will be quick and easy project. I just need some Java code that I can pass a folder path (e.g., String folder = "C:\SomePDFs\"), and have the program iterate through each PDF file and extract the full text into a string, so I can do some other stuff with it inside the loop. (If it matters, I use Eclipse as my IDE.) I looked into Adobe's pdfbox tool, but I'm not a Java guy and couldn't figure it out in time. You can use pdfbox or any PDF parser you like. The only other requirements are that it has to be able to deal with non-English characters (e.g. Japanese, Chinese, Arabic, etc.), and if you use some kind of 3rd party library, I will also need you to tell me what libraries to include and where to get them. If you have questions, let me know. Thanks!
