pdf2textbox

A PDF-to-text converter based on pdfminer2 (which is based on pdfminer.six which is based on pdfminer). Converts PDF files with up to 3 columns and a header (optional) to text and avoids most caveats that multi-columned PDF files have in store for PDF conversion.

Features

Convert PDF to text in the original order. This works well for PDF-files without tables, graphs, and other stuff.

Allows command line parameter -s (–slice) to indicate that only part of the PDF document is of interest. Start and end page will then be either retreived from the document’s name using ‘_’ or ‘|’ as delimiters or - if start and end page cannot be found - user input is requested.

Installation

pip install pdf2textbox
