Can text data - column/cell values be obtained from a memorystream of a Syncfusion PDF Document

I am able to receive a MemoryStream of a PDF Document that was created using Syncfusion PDF by setting up grids etc. But for testing sake, I need to go through the reverse route of converting a memorystream to PdfDocument and then into a PdfGrid where I can test the cell values. Is that possible in Xamarin.iOS? Is it possible to convert back a PDF into an object format where text can be parsed in C#?

Hi Sudharshan, 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

No, it is not possible to create back from the memory stream, since we draw grid in the content stream directly with shapes. So, at present we do not have support to get grid/table object back from existing document. 

Please let us know if you need any other assistance. 

Regards, 
Sathya
