Read contents of the PDF file from the URL in PL/SQL

951418Jan 23 2013 — edited Jan 25 2013

Is there any way to read contents of the PDF File.

There is link (web application) where the PDF file is uploaded. I need to read all the Contents of the PDF File in a Clob variable.
And then need to insert specific rows into the table.

Consider the below url as the sample URL

http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/i1040tt.pdf

The above URL has some tables and the data, i need to get the data from the PDF and insert into the Table

Please note that the The PDF bile is not being stored in the DB. It is uploaded in some link

Is this possible?
