2 Is it still working now? I had to change the file(path, 'rb') to `open(path, 'rb') to get mine to work. import sys reload(sys) sys.setdefaultencoding('utf-8') CONDA R TEXT ENCODING ISSUE PDF
1 Thanks it works on python v2.7.12 and on ubuntu 16.04, though it would be better to load the pdf document with encoding utf-8, because my sample pdf has some encoding issue so try this after encoding with utf-8 and it resolve the issue. 2 Currently getting an import error with this code: ImportError: No module named 'pdfminer.pdfpage'. 2 works fine, but, how can I deal with spaces in for example names? suppose I have a pdf that contains 4 columns where I have first- and lastname in one col, now it get parsed with firstname in one row and lastname in one row, here's an example docdro.id/rRyef3x. I used the Python library pdfminer.six, released on November 2018. Verified in Python Version 3.xĮdit: The solution works with Python 3.7 at October 3, 2019. PDFMiner's structure changed recently, so this should work for extracting text from the PDF files.Įdit : Still working as of the June 7th of 2018. Here is a working example of extracting text from a PDF file using the current version of PDFMiner(September 2016) from pdfminer.pdfinterp import PDFResourceManager, PDFPageInterpreter from nverter import TextConverter from pdfminer.layout import LAParams from pdfminer.pdfpage import PDFPage from io import StringIO def convert_pdf_to_txt(path): rsrcmgr = PDFResourceManager() retstr = StringIO() codec = 'utf-8' laparams = LAParams() device = TextConverter(rsrcmgr, retstr, codec=codec, laparams=laparams) fp = open(path, 'rb') interpreter = PDFPageInterpreter(rsrcmgr, device) password = '' maxpages = 0 caching = True pagenos=set() for page in PDFPage.get_pages(fp, pagenos, maxpages=maxpages, password=password,caching=caching, check_extractable=True): interpreter.process_page(page) text = retstr.getvalue() fp.close() device.close() retstr.close() return text I think I made it more confusing than it needed to be. I went ahead and edited my question for clarity. Everything I can find is using an old syntax for PDFMiner. CONDA R TEXT ENCODING ISSUE HOW TO
This is me looking for documentation, or an example of how to use PDFMiner.
Like I said in my original question, the libraries that rely on PDFMiner break before finishing imports along with any example that I can find. CONDA R TEXT ENCODING ISSUE FULL
Can you kindly post your code and post your full error traceback as well?
I have just literally installed PDFminer off from GitHub and it imports fine. I can't find any documentation for PDFMiner either or I would just be working off of that :(
I have been looking through the source-code and it looks like they restructured some things which is why the imports are breaking.
sorry, I forgot to add my Python version.
You should use pdfminer3k if so, as it is the standing Python 3 import of said library. That might be the reason you're getting import errors.
Which distribution of Python are you using, 2.7.x or 3.x.x? It should be noted that the author explicitly detailed that PDFminer doesn't work with Python 3.x.x. CONDA R TEXT ENCODING ISSUE UPDATE
