Unlike -other PDF-related tools, it focuses entirely on getting and analyzing -text data. PDFMiner allows one to obtain the exact location of text in a -page, as well as other information such as fonts or lines. It includes a -PDF converter that can transform PDF files into other text formats (such -as HTML). It has an extensible PDF parser that can be used for other -purposes than text analysis. - -PDFMiner comes with two handy tools: pdf2txt.py and dumppdf.py. - -pdf2txt.py - -pdf2txt.py extracts text contents from a PDF file. It cannot recognize -text drawn as images. It also extracts locations, font names/sizes, -writing direction. It requires a password for password protected PDF -documents. You cannot extract any text from a PDF document which does -not have extraction permission. - -dumppdf.py - -dumppdf.py dumps the internal contents of a PDF file in pseudo-XML -format. This program is primarily for debugging purposes, but it's also -possible to extract some meaningful contents (e.g. images). |
