Works fine. Just add "type": "module" to the JSON at the start and in the js import * as pdfjs from 'pdfjs-dist/legacy/build/pdf.mjs'

@JadeclonOfficial 2 года назад

Great Video, works fine! Note that you have to define the const pdfjs = require("pdfjs-dist/legacy/build/pdf"); like this now

@rohit1kumar Год назад

If you are working with node 18 This will also works fine pdfjs = require("pdfjs-dist/build/pdf")

Can i modify the pdf document with this library? Like change the content of the hyperlinks, or modifying some words in the title?

@Recoding 2 года назад

Yes surely you can after extracting the data you could change any data you want.

@Jeff-zc6rr 2 года назад

const file = event.target.files[0]; const uri = URL.createObjectURL(file); var pdf = await pdfjs.getDocument({ url: uri }); var page = await pdf.getPage(1);

what is in the .vscode folder? If you would not mind?

@Recoding 2 года назад

It is a temporary file for storing project related settings.

@manojtewari3450 3 года назад

this code is not woking ...please tell your version

@Recoding 3 года назад

What version?

@bondifrench3382 3 года назад

At the time of the video (May 2021) version must have been 2.7.570, code in video works with that version. The next version was 2.8.335 and there was no longer an es5 folder so you need to require("pdfjs-dist/legacy/build/pdf") instead for it to work. With the latest version (2.9.359), code won't work because it seems now mandatory that we need to install a fake worker. So probably best to use previous versions at this stage.

Excelent video, How do I extract images?

@Recoding 2 года назад

You need to filter out img tag inside the PDF by using Filter Method of the Array.

change the path to 'pdfjs-dist/legacy/build/pdf' if u are using node 16 and if u are using node 18 use 'pdfjs-dist/build/pdf' or 'pdfjs-dist/legacy/build/pdf' both works fine
