Question

TEXT output from PDF file


I have exported data from PDF file using FME. The output contains lines, polygon and text data. A sample of the text data is attached. I need to combine the different letters in points with the same TEXT_ANGLE and TEXT_SIZE to form a new attribute containing the full text and write it to 1 point feature.

This should do the trick, the points come in in the correct order and as long as there is no two "lines" of text with the exact same rotation angle following right after eachother you should be ok.

Thank you. It worked. Just had a small problem with some points where attribute is an empty string. Replaced empty strings with a <space> and the results were correct.

Thank you
