Why dont you convert the text file to a pdf file? On the mac you can do it for free. In windows you can download the bullzip free pdf printer to do it. Once its a pdf you can just use the pdf reader's boomarking ability.

Open pdf file in Microsoft Word using OLE

I am looking for the method (of Word ole-object) which can open pdf in the Microsoft Word.
I want to copy all pages of pdf into doc/docx and add there footers.
Could anybody give the cue how to import pdf?
PS: any sample code for this problem would be great.
Thanks,

You need OCR (Optical Character Recognition) engine for converting PDF to document. PDF is generic format and it can include text as image. So it is very hard to convert PDF to document. SAP hasn't got any OCR function for doing this. Maybe OpenText (if customer using it) has this functionality, I haven't got detail information about opentext. You need third party tools for this. You can use online services or command line utilities to converting PDF files to text files easelly if PDF included text, otherwise you need professional SDKs (for example Abbyy Finereader) for doing this.
I used FoxIT PDF Reader to save the PDF file into text file and make a macro to read the text file. Of course, by doing so, you can only get the text, but nothing else.

Print to pdf that is searchable and selectable from existing pdf that is selectable and searchable

I am trying to print a section of an existing pdf to a new pdf. The original is searchable and selectable but the new pdf cannot do either. I am using "adobe acrobat reader DC" and print via "Microsoft Print to PDF". Unsure if there is any other relevant information.
After searching for a period of time I could not find an answer that allows for direct PDF to PDF print.
I did find a workaround however.
I downloaded a free software called PrimoPDF. Once installed, PrimoPDF becomes a printer option within Adobe acrobat reader. I then selected my desired pages and printed to PrimoPDf instead of Microsoft Print to PDF. This Generated a .ps file. I then imported the .ps file into PrimoPDF application and was able to generate a .pdf from that. The newly generated pdf was searchable and selectable and exactly what I needed.
Hopefully someone else finds this useful in the future.
Generally refrying (printing to PostScript then converting back to PDF) is a bad idea. The reason that Microsoft Print to PDF created a file that wasn't searchable is because when Adobe Reader detects that the printer it is targeting isn't capable of rendering the PDF correctly because of any number of reasons, like it doesn't have the right fonts for example, it will render the PDF itself and send an image to the printer. A simpler PDF probably would have worked just fine.
You are much better off getting a tool that will simply allow you to extract the pages you need to a new file rather than printing.

Converting PDF to WMF

Can someone suggest the best way to convert a PDF file to WMF?
I currently make Dynamic XML Form PDFs with Adobe LiveCycle Designer, but a client requires the file in WMF format for printing. Instead of filling out the form directly, they have their users answer the questions within their own UI, then print the fields to the form.
I've tried converting the PDF to PNG within Acrobat then converting it to WMF, but our client is having issues with them indicating these WMFs "appear to be graphics renamed as WMFs".
Thanks
Try writing a script that prints your PDF files into a WMF/EMF virtual printer.
There a few out there, for example:
EMF Printer (GPL, not free for commercial use).
Amyuni EMF Printer Freeware, but a bit outdated (Disclaimer: I work for Amyuni Technologies).
I believe there is another one (as source code) in the Windows Driver Kit source code samples, but I cannot find the link now.

Using Texmaker, I want to lock the PDF file created so others cannot copy text or print the file

I'm creating PDFs using Texmaker. I would like to create some of the PDF files so that when I give the PDF to others, they are not able to print the file or to copy the text. I know I can do this with some PDF creator applications, but can I do that from some command like program I have with Latex, MikTex and TexMaker?
It wouldn't be effective anyway. There are bits in the pdf format that purport to forbid the user from doing this, but they are really just suggestions that the reader application may or may not act on. There is nothing to stop a user from removing the code that inspects the bits from a free/libre PDF reader, or just to run a tool over the file to remove the restrictions.

difference between microsoft report viewer and adobe pdf reader tools?

i would like to display a pdf on my winform and am thinking of using of those tools in my vb.net application. does anyone know the difference between the two?
Microsoft Report Viewer reads report definition files and displays the report. Adobe's PDF reader displays PDF files.
Report definition files != PDF files, so you would need to make sure that you use the right tool for the right job. If you need to read PDFs, use a PDF reader.
As for consuming a PDF on a WinForm, you could host a WebBrowser control and point to the PDF. Alternately, there are several WinForm control manufacturers that read and display a PDF file (though I've not used any of them so would not be able to recommend one over another). Examples would be:
