Extract Text from PDF for Metadata/Private Data Use

Is there a way to search for and then extract and use a string of text from a PDF file to be used within Switch as either metadata or private data (or really anyhow) so that I can rename the PDF file? I want the name of the incoming PDF to be named by the string of text within the PDF. I can search ...

Re: Utilizing Pitstop Warning Report Data in Switch

I have figured out how to access the string from the Pitstop warning within Switch -- the Pitstop report needs to be changed to XML versus the default which is PDF.

Re: HP SmartStream Designer saving imposed JLT files

For anyone interested, we resolved the issue by creating a ticket template on the HP Production Pro DFE which has this specific PMS color + CMYK defined in the color mode so I can successfully print our imposed PDF file -- no need to save out the JLT.
