reading PDF

Hi folks ...

well I'm quite new to ROR and a client asked for a tool i'd like to write in ruby ... well but there's a problem: is it possible to READ pdf with ROR? And furthormore can i extract special layers? Like the comment layer for example.

(i know my englisch is quite rusty ^^)

Hi Ooze,

This mailing list is for discussions regarding the development of Rails framework. For usage questions, like yours, you should have used the general “Rails talk” list. I recommend you re-post the question and have the discussion there.

Tip: search Rubyforge for PDF-related libraries: http://rubyforge.org/search/?type_of_search=soft&words=PDF&Search=Search
