Can we automate pdf using selenium?

Is there any way to get text from PDF pages using selenium/java apart from reading through input file stream?

In my application a report opens in PDF format, I need to get data from it. When opened in Firefox it shows DOM structure but I wasn't able to locate element using that.

Big NO.Selenium automates browsers,Mock web applications, run tests. What you are asking is not the part of Selenium api. Third party api's are available that doesn't work 100%. check out How to extract text from a PDF?
