I am using the below code to read a text file and it always returns 0 bytes for edocStream. Any idea please?

using (LaserficheReadStream edocStream = document.ReadEdoc(out mimeType))
{
edocStream.CopyTo(fileStream);
}

Unless you explicitly imported the original .txt file as the electronic file component of a Laserfiche document, .txt files are imported as the text pages of a Laserfiche document.

You can use DocumentInfo.GetPageInfos to retrieve the pages of a LF document and then read out the text for each page.

You can also use DocumentServices's DocumentExporter class to export the text of a Laserfiche document.

Ok, thanks. I converted the text document as an electronic file and use the below code to read. How do I read contents of edocstream into a string object please?

string mimeType = "";
using (FileStream fileStream = File.Create(m_filePath))
using (LaserficheReadStream edocStream = document.ReadEdoc(out mimeType))
{
    edocStream.CopyTo(fileStream);
}

How do you read the text associated with an electronic document please using API? The document does not have any image. It just have text. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Try:

using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(document.ReadEdoc(out mimeType)))
{
    string s = reader.ReadToEnd();
}
