## PDFMiner
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PDFMiner is a tool for extracting information from PDF documents.
|
||
|
|
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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
