Hello!
<div><br></div><div>I work for a digital publishing company. We use a command line tool pdf2htmlEX that uses poppler. Most of our clients use In Design to produce PDFs for us. When they export a document as a PDF they have a number of presets to choose from listed here:</div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/exporting-publishing-pdf.html#adobe_pdf_presets">http://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/using/exporting-publishing-pdf.html#adobe_pdf_presets</a></div><div><br></div><div>We are wondering if choosing a preset would have any impact on the quality of poppler's text extraction. Anyone have input into which of these presets would be the best to use for high quality text extraction?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div>Tyler.</div></div></div></span></body></html>
