Hello! When i´m trying importing in ubuntu, this error is displayed:

>>> import pdfplumber
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/dist-packages/pdfplumber/__init__.py", line 10, in <module>

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

My best guess is that your environment (or virtual environment) is using Python 2, rather than Python 3.

@betances It seems like you are using Python 3.5. The support for Python 3.5 was dropped in version 0.5.23. Request you to upgrade to Python 3.6 or higher if you want to use pdfplumber 0.5.23 or higher else downgrade to pdfplumber 0.5.22 or lower.

Ah, good catch, @samkit-jain, and thanks for reading the traceback more carefully than I did! I concur.
