Hi,You can use free third-party .NET and Java libraries such as PDFBox or iText for your needs. You can call them from your tests via TestComplete's CLR Bridge and Java Bridge.See the following forum threads for examples of using these libraries:How to get the content of a pdf file on window and How to reference a .NET assemblyI hope this helps.Ann

Another alternative is to install the Foxit PDF reader. A simple Ctrl-6 keystroke will display the document as plain text in a normal text edit window.
