Leave empty for all pages. Example: '0,2-5,7-'. $Pages = "" # PDF document password. Leave empty for unprotected documents. $Password = "" # Search string. $SearchString = '\d{1,}\.\d\d' #Regular expression to find numbers like '100.00' # Enable regular expressions (Regex) $RegexSearch = 'True' # Prepare URL for PDF text search API call. $query = "https://localhost/pdf/find?password=$($Password)&pages=$($Pages)&url=$($SourceFileURL)&searchString=$($SearchString)&regexSearch=$($RegexSearch)" $query = [System.Uri]::EscapeUriString($query) try { # Execute request $jsonResponse = Invoke-RestMethod -Method Get -Uri $query if ($jsonResponse.error -eq $false) { # Display search information foreach ($item in $jsonResponse.body) { Write-Host "Found text $($item.text) at coordinates $($item.left), $($item.top)" } } else { # Display service reported error Write-Host $jsonResponse.message } } catch { # Display request error Write-Host $_.Exception }
