iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Sincerely,
The Progress Team

As iMacros is designed to work on web pages, it does not natively interact with PDF files (besides downloading them). The following open source software (released under GPLv2) may thus come in handy when used in scripts as it contains a command line PDF to text (pdf2txt) converter.
