Data in text is not proper format after converting PDF to text

Viewed 25

I have 1 PDF file. I need to fetch key values. I am able to convert PDF to text by using pdfBox and itext api's but text is not in proper format. I need to get the values from the text and have to do some calculation. Below is the piece of code:

PDFTextStripperByArea stripper = new PDFTextStripperByArea();  
stripper.setSortByPosition(true);  
PDFTextStripper pstripper = new PDFTextStripper();  
String text = pstripper.getText(pddoc);  
String lines[] = text.split("\\r?\\n");  
for (String line : lines) {  
System.out.println(line);  
}  
pddoc.close();

Could you please help me on this? Thanks.
