Description

Gives Python programs a straightforward way to extract text from PDF documents. It is useful for scripts that import document content into search indexes, reports, data pipelines, or conversion workflows.

It does not provide a full PDF reader. Extracted text can contain private information and may lose layout details, so review output before publishing or feeding it into automated systems.
