| Method | Description |
|---|---|
.get_pdf_text(pdf_path,pdf_password="",pages=[],left_most_x=0,left_most_y=0,right_most_x=1,right_most_y=1) |
Returns a list of list, of texts, present in each of the page in the document.pdf_password argument takes a string input,if pdf is encrypted with password, the password needs to be passed to this argument. Pages argument takes a list of pages or int (single page) from where the text needs to be extracted, if text from all pages are required the default parameter will take care. left_most_x this parameter defines the starting point of text extraction on x axis (width). Its value lies between [0,1], like if we need .25 percent of right side of page (width) then we will pass .75 as argument. left_most_y this parameter defines the starting point of text extraction on y axis (height). Its value lies between [0,1], like if we need .25 percent of text from bottom side of page (height) then we will pass .75 as argument. right_most_x this parameter defines the end point of text extraction on x axis (width). Its value lies between [0,1]. right_most_y this parameter defines the end point of text extraction on y axis (height). Its value lies between [0,1]. These parameters right_most_y,left_most_x,right_most_x,left_most_y are set to default for extracting text from complete page without cropping, if the text needs to be extracted from a particular area of page, these parameters become handy. |
