The Apache Tika toolkit detects and extracts metadata and text from over a thousand different file types (such as PPT, XLS, and PDF).
All of these file types can be parsed through a single interface, making Tika useful for search engine indexing, content analysis, translation, and much more.
Apache Tika uses the Bouncy Castle generic encryption libraries for extracting text content and metadata from encrypted PDF files.
This is free and open source software.
