ExtractFilePageTextBlocks

Version history

This function was introduced in Quick PDF Library version 9.13.

Description

Similar to the ExtractFilePageText function but the results are stored in a text block list rather than returned as a CSV string.

This function internally uses the direct access functionality.

Once the results are in the text block list, functions such as DAGetTextBlockCount, DAGetTextBlockText and DAGetTextBlockColor can be used to retrieve the properties of each block of text.
