mogsdad / Apps Script pdfToText utility.md
Last active September 3, 2025 23:32
For http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26613809, a question about getting pdf attachments in gmail as text. I got a little carried away - this does much more than asked.

Google Apps Script pdfToText Utility#

This is a helper function that will convert a given PDF file blob into text, as well as offering options to save the original PDF, intermediate Google Doc, and/or final plain text files. Additionally, the language used for Optical Character Recognition (OCR) may be specified, defaulting to 'en' (English).

Note: Updated 12 May 2015 due to deprecation of DocsList. Thanks to Bruce McPherson for the getDriveFolderFromPath() utility.

    // Start with a Blob object
    var blob = gmailAttchment.getAs(MimeType.PDF);

Footnotes to sidenote, and maybe links to sidenotes ?
/**
* Generate sidenotes using footnotes from Multimarkdown generated content
* Idea and principle borrowed from Adrew Clark : http://acdlite.github.io/jquery.sidenotes/ and https://github.com/acdlite/jquery.sidenotes
*
* This script : - gather footnotes in the passed container selector
* - insert the sidenotes in the current text, according to screen size :
* - on big screens insert the sidenote *before* the anchor
* - on medium screens, insert the sidenote *after* the anchor
