to fetch doc file content

$myFile = "pdf/document_file.doc";
$fh = fopen($myFile, 'r');
$theData = file_get_contents($myFile);
fclose($fh);
echo "<pre>";
echo $theData;
echo "</pre>";

My above script fetches the data from document file but it display some of binary numbers.

I need to display document file content in to html content

For Example If my document file is a resume. i need to fetch the content and display document data same as selected file in html page

You're reading binary data. Hence the "numbers". The raw data needs to go through some "filter/render implementation" first.

Plus, when you use file_get_contents() there's no need to fopen() and fclose().

It IS binary data. To view it as HTML you need to convert it first.
