File Content Extraction 26.2
Filter SDK C++ Programming Guide

# text

Provides streaming access to the text content from the document. The returned `istream` is non-seekable.

Do not call any other Filter SDK functions between read operations on the returned `istream`, because doing so might prevent text filtering from resuming correctly.

## Syntax

    std::istream& text() const;
