str = extractFileText('C:\Documents\SomeFile.pdf')
returns:
str =
<missing>
The PDF file I am trying to extract text from is a test data file, so it is mostly numbers. However, a function I found on FileExchange was able to parse most of the PDF but limited the amount of characters I could bring in. The function works just fine for a PDF file of a novel that I had handy. Is there a way to make extractFileText work for my file or will it be limited to only certain PDF files.

The extractFileText function has been significantly rewritten for R2021a and may give different results for some PDF files. I recommend trying again with the latest version. If you are still seeing issues, please contact technical support.
