    I need to develop php scripts which are capable of extracting texts from different kinds of documents like .pdf, .doc, .rtf etc

    So can anyone suggest a resource which can help me in this regard.

    A really easy way to achieve what you want, using a consistent interface for all file formats, is with phpLiveDocx. The following file formats are supported:

    DOCX - Microsoft Word DOCX Format
    DOC - Microsoft Word DOC Format
    RTF - Rich Text Format File
    PDF - Acrobat Portable Document Format
    TXD - TX Text Control Format
    TXT - ANSI Plain Text

    You can download the PHP5 components from phpLiveDocx.org
