Gears.IFilterHelper - An excellent library for easy and fast text extraction in the .NET environment!
Text extraction is a task that many developers face every day. As superficially simple as it may sound, this task becomes a real problem when the program should efficiently work with a large number of document types and formats.
Writing your own components may require too much time and efforts, which otherwise could have been invested into improving the program core and general optimization.
There are many extractors available on the market for each document type, but their aggregate cost may by far exceed your budget for this aspect of your application. If you are looking for an affordable, stable, easy-to-use and elegant solution for text extraction in .NET environment, make sure you don't miss Gears.IFilterHelper!
