Anyone Know of any C# alternative to TiKa able to extract text from HTML,PDF, etc..?

I've implemented a framework called Toxy. It's based on .NET and easier to use than Tika. Please visit http://toxy.codeplex.com

I've got a similar need... I've got a .Net project where I need to pull text out of various files (.XLS, .DOC, .PDF, etc), for indexing with Lucene.Net

This blog post seems to be exactly what I'm after: A .Net wrapper around the .jar file!

I'm implementing it now, but if it doesn't work then I'll update my answer here...

Edit: Ok, it's up, running, and working well (if a little slowly). There's some pretty nasty dependency wrangling with the IKVM bits, but it's the best alternative that I've found.

Your question is a little vague, but for parsing HTML you can use the Html Agility Pack which gives you full DOM access to the HTML and allows extracting elements using XPath expressions.

You can use Lucene.Net and try some parsers.... I have just found this blog that has some cool links... I hope it helps!
