The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Not sure if you're open to open source solutions, but here's one that's
written in Node.js: https://github.com/galkahana/HummusJS** Note it is
written on top of http://pdfhummus.com which is written in C++ and would
need to be compiled on Power.
There is a pure-Python (no C, no C++, no compilation step) library
called PyPDF2 which can do this:
http://mstamy2.github.io/PyPDF2/
The name is unimaginative, but it works well in most cases, and should
run anywhere Python runs, including IBM i. For those with 5733OPS
Option 2 installed, you can get this package by doing
pip install pypdf2
at a QSH or QP2TERM command line. Then, within Python, do
import PyPDF2
and you are ready to start experimenting with its capabilities.
(Disclaimer: I have only confirmed that it installs correctly with pip
and that it imports correctly within Python; I have not actually USED
the package for anything myself.)
