PDF Trawler

This script will recursively search a directory for PDF files and load them into the structure entity at the root of the data tree.

/**
* PDF file loader.
* Trawls a directory and all its subdirectories, and looks for PDF files.
* Extracts the individual molecules from the file and loads them into the
* structure entity at the root of the data tree.
*
* Usage:
* 1. create a structure entity in the project explorer
* 2. Add a fields named 'Filename' and 'Name'
* 3. Edit the settings in the 'adjust these variables' section (the defaults are for the
* Pubchem demo data tree in the sample project)
* 4. Run the script
