Hi,
I'm looking for a way to store .pdf/.doc/.docx files content into a db. I'm currently using PHP fread which is working fine.
However it is storing strange characters along with the content of the text.
is there a cleaner way of just getting the content of such files.
also, what should be the column type. i'm currently using MediumBlob.
thanks.
