thank you for providing a good pdf parser.

If a figure is not saved as an image in a pdf, it will be extracted as text. ex) visio

Is there a way to extract pdf of these structures as an image as well?

Attached is the problematic pdf.

Code to reproduce the problem

import pdfplumber pdf = pdfplumber.open('hi_test.pdf') page = pdf.pages[0] print(page.images) output page.images= []

PDF file

hi_test.pdf
