Fix bug in computing character bounding box (#348) 
* Remove scaling font height/width with size of font bounding box

* Refactor LTChar bounding box computation

* Change expected outcome of `python tools/pdf2txt.py samples/simple3.pdf`, because it looks like an improvement. However, when I view `samples/simple3.pdf` I don't see any text at all. The change in expected outcome is explained by the fact that the bounding boxes of characters can be different, depending on the `/FontBBox` parameter of the font.

* Add test for font sizes, and for this a high-level function that returns an iterator of LTPage objects

* Add line to CHANGELOG

Build Status PyPI version gitter

Pdfminer.six is an community maintained fork of the original PDFMiner. It is a tool for extracting information from PDF documents. Unlike other PDF-related tools, it focuses entirely on getting and analyzing text data. Pdfminer.six 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.

Check out the full documentation on Read the Docs.
