    Windows probably blocks the PDFBox DLLs because they were downloaded from the Internet. Unblock the ZIP file (PDFBox.NET-1.8.9.zip) in the file propertites, then unzip it replacing your existing DLLs.

      get dlls here

      http://www.squarepdf.net/pdfbox-in-net

      (I have about 37 dlls in my folder it could change I didn't check last update)

      Tools\CurrentProjectProperties\CLDBridge\Browse Files then add all the dlls

       

      Then, for example, to get all PDF test in a TestComplete's Message : (delphi script)

       

      strFileName:= ChooseYourFile;
      doc:= dotNET.org_apache_pdfbox_pdmodel.PDDocument.load(strFileName);
      if (doc.isEncrypted()) then
      begin
         doc.decrypt('');
         doc.setAllSecurityToBeRemoved(true);
      end;
      pdfStripper:= dotNET.org_apache_pdfbox_util.PDFTextStripper.zctor_2();
      str:= pdfStripper.getText_2(doc);
      Log.Message('See Additional Info ', str);

       

      I hope it will work

        I tried the steps provided by you.

         

        for 'dotNET.org_apache_pdfbox_pdmodel.PDDocument.load(strFileName)'

         

        I am getting error 'org_apache_pdfbox_pdmodel.PDDocument' is null or not an object

         

        I checked it and I see that undet dotNET , 'org_apache_pdfbox_pdmodel' is not getting listed
