1 year ago try the following steps:
- Check the PDF file: Open the PDF file in a PDF viewer or editor and verify if the text appears correctly. Make sure there are no special characters or encoding problems in the file itself.
- Update the PDF library: Ensure that you have the latest version of the PyPDF2 library installed. You can try updating it using pip install --upgrade PyPDF2 to see if it resolves any compatibility issues or bugs.
- Try a different PDF library: If updating the library doesn't work, consider using an alternative PDF library, such as pdfminer or PyMuPDF, to extract the text from the PDF file. Different libraries may handle PDF parsing and text extraction differently, so using an alternative library might give you better results.
Here's an example code snippet that uses the pdfminer library to extract text from a PDF file:
from pdfminer.high_level import extract_text
def read_document(file_path): text = extract_text(file_path) return text
Usage
file_path = "path_to_your_pdf_file.pdf" text = read_document(file_path) print(text)
Make sure you have the pdfminer.six library installed before running the code. You can install it using pip:pip install pdfminer.six
This code snippet uses the extract_text function from pdfminer.high_level module to extract the text from the PDF file specified by file_path. The extracted text is then returned by the read_document function.
Note that pdfminer may not always provide perfect text extraction, especially if the PDF has complex formatting or embedded images. In such cases, you may need to explore additional options or libraries for more accurate extraction.
And here's some sample code using pymupdf:import fitz
def read_document(file_path): text = "" with fitz.open(file_path) as doc: for page in doc: text += page.get_text() return text
Usage
file_path = "path_to_your_pdf_file.pdf" text = read_document(file_path) print(text)
Make sure you have the PyMuPDF library installed before running the code. You can install it using pip:pip install PyMuPDF
This code snippet uses the fitz module from PyMuPDF to open the PDF file specified by file_path and extract the text from each page using the getText method. The extracted text from all pages is concatenated and returned by the read_document function.
PyMuPDF provides more advanced features for working with PDF files, such as extracting images, annotations, and metadata. You can explore the documentation for PyMuPDF to learn more about its capabilities and how to utilize them in your code.
4. Encoding and decoding: In some cases, the text extracted from a PDF file may have encoding issues. You can try decoding the text using different encodings to see if it produces the expected output. For example, you can try decoding with 'utf-8', 'latin-1', or 'unicode-escape' encodings:import PyPDF2
def read_document(file_path): with open(file_path, 'rb') as file: pdf_reader = PyPDF2.PdfReader(file) text = "" for page in pdf_reader.pages: page_text = page.extract_text() try: decoded_text = page_text.encode('latin-1').decode('utf-8') text += decoded_text except UnicodeDecodeError: text += page_text return text
For example 28.pdf gets read with the following text: 〷⼲㔯㈰㈲‱〺〴⁐協 Order Date:Order Number: 08-02476888-CExpedited Order 呉䵉体Ⱐ䥎䌮 ㈳〱⁗⸠偌䅎传偋坙 STE 215 PLANO, TX 75075 Phone: (818) 706-6400 䱅塉乇呏丬⁓䌠ⴠ㈹〷㈭㤷㈹噥湤潲⁃桡牧攺 $350.00 噥湤潲⁎漺 〰〲〳㔶 噥湤潲⁎慭攺 䍁剏䱉乁⁁呔佒久夠久呗 ORK LLC 噥湤潲⁁ ddress: ㄱ㔠䑒䥆呗 住䐠䑒 Vendor Phone: (803)520-2048 Vendor Fax: (803)520-8041 䅳獩杮浥湴⁔祰攺 Reverse Closing 䅳獩杮敤⁄慴攺 〹⼲〯㈰㈲‱㌺ㄹ⁐協 Projected Closing Date: 〹⼲㈯㈰㈲‱㌺㌰ Home Phone: (803)646-1118 䅤摲敳猺 242 TRIPLE H FARM LANE, AIKEN, SC - 29803 HAYMANS\W ANDA A.
