This is a PDFTableMaster package. You can use Github-flavored Markdown

Parmeters to adjust #pdfTable.set_parameters({'upperBoundry':10, 'lowerBoundry':10 , 'margin':3})

-->upperBoundry and lowerBoundry states the upper and lower boundries in the vertical axis to identify rows -->These values should be modified to fit the PDF table you're about the scrape -->Margin defines the horizontal bountries of the table ( use to identify columns)

class clean(CleanMaster): def cleanListMaster(self , rows): #you have to implement this method with rules to filter out rows finalPageList = [] for row in rows: if(len(row) >= 6 and len(row) <= 6): if(row[0].strip().startswith("LKA") and len(row[0].strip()) == 12 ): finalPageList.append(clean.removeComma(row) )

        return finalPageList
