Using IFilter in Delphi

Posted on April 30th, 2006.

I noticed (by looking at my blog statistics) that I get quite a few visitors looking for IFilter and Delphi in google. The reason is that I have a article on using IFilter in C# (http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/IFilter.asp) and that I mention Delphi quite often in this blog.
Anyway, I don’t have that information here, but I can point you to the right place:

Go to http://www.shorterpath.com/develop/spfree/default.asp , and click “download now”. The zip file contains numerous free components from ShorterPath. The SPFilter.pas file contains a function that extracts text from a document using the IFilter interface.

I try to use your IFilter implementation. First of all, your IFilter app doesn’t support the pdf. Secondly, the app totally ignores the line break in the .docx file. All the lines are concatenated. Do you have any solution for this?
