Have you made sure that r, i and Strategy are not null?
Also what is PdfTextExtractor.GetTextFromPage method? is this something that you have created or is it a 3rd party API?
What is the exact error message that you are getting?

It might be because GetTextFromPage uses a 0-based index.

for (int i = 0; i < r.NumberOfPages; i++)

That's what I thought too, but it looks like page numbering *does* begin with 1 :(

If you change LocationTextExtractionStrategy to SimpleTextExtractionStrategy do you get the same error? I can't see where you're defining the text location

this is your third question over the same code. You expand your code each time. And when there is a next problem you are here. Some questions please Google first. Some of your problems are to easy to tackle. Like this one. Why don't you debug the loop and see if i or r is the problem in which case.

And please accept the solutions given to you in the other questions.
