PyPDF2 is an open source Python library for converting PDF files to a series of columns in the standard OCR package, ocr_conv. Portables is a collection of tools for converting a source PDF file to another format, or vice versa. To be honest, if you are comfortable with the text editor of your choice and want to convert a PDF file to another kind of file, it can most likely be done using this module. Premier is similar to Portables, but is geared towards converting a file that contains a sequence of pages to another format.

Hello everyone and thanks for joining my name is Demeter night enough and I'm a freelance button developer from Sofia Bulgaria today I'm going to talk to you about extracting tabular data from PDFs and the problems I faced and as well the solutions which I found so let's start by a quick overview of what this top would be about so sorry first we'll have a brief history of the PDF Portable Document format and its internal structure specifically how specifically how tabular data is represented and why it's hard to actually extract such data then on top Camelot and Excalibur the main focus of this talk I'll see I will list the features which those libraries make available for use and why it's so easy to use them to extract the tabular data and get control over the extraction process as well then there is time for some quick demonstration which I'll show you how to use the kernel lot API and how you can tweak the extraction process to suit your needs and at the end we'll have some Q&A and also a look at possible improvements that can be done in Camelot and an Excalibur as well so let's get started with the portable document format so almost thirty years ago if not more John Warnock which is one of the founders of Adobe Systems started something which was unofficially called the Project Camelot the Camelot project sorry and this crab goes in a manifest to sort of document six pages long and here you can see a few extra excerpts from that document the goal was to create the universal document format which is easy to exchange between different systems environments Oasis and each PDF can contain rich content annotations attachments fonts and all sorts...
