在2020年，上述解决方案并不适用于我正在使用的特定pdf。下面是诀窍。我用的是Windows 10和Python 3.8

def convert_pdf_to_txt(path):
    '''Convert pdf content from a file path to text

    :path the file path
    '''
    rsrcmgr = PDFResourceManager()
    codec = 'utf-8'
    laparams = LAParams()

    with io.StringIO() as retstr:
        with TextConverter(rsrcmgr, retstr, codec=codec,
                           laparams=laparams) as device:
            with open(path, 'rb') as fp:
                interpreter = PDFPageInterpreter(rsrcmgr, device)
                password = ""
                maxpages = 0
                caching = True
                pagenos = set()

                for page in PDFPage.get_pages(fp,
                                              pagenos,
                                              maxpages=maxpages,
                                              password=password,
                                              caching=caching,
                                              check_extractable=True):
                    interpreter.process_page(page)

                return retstr.getvalue()


if __name__ == "__main__":
    print(convert_pdf_to_txt('C:\\Path\\To\\Test_PDF.pdf')) 

下面的代码是Python 3中该问题的解决方案。在运行代码之前，请确保已在您的环境中安装了PyPDF2库。如果未安装，打开命令提示符，执行以下命令:

pip3 install PyPDF2

使用PyPDF2 <= 1.26.0的解决方案代码:

import PyPDF2
pdfFileObject = open('sample.pdf', 'rb')
pdfReader = PyPDF2.PdfFileReader(pdfFileObject)
count = pdfReader.numPages
for i in range(count):
    page = pdfReader.getPage(i)
    print(page.extractText())

你可以使用pytessaract和OpenCV简单地做到这一点。参考下面的代码。您可以从本文中获得更多详细信息。

import os
from PIL import Image
from pdf2image import convert_from_path
import pytesseract

filePath = ‘021-DO-YOU-WONDER-ABOUT-RAIN-SNOW-SLEET-AND-HAIL-Free-Childrens-Book-By-Monkey-Pen.pdf’
doc = convert_from_path(filePath)

path, fileName = os.path.split(filePath)
fileBaseName, fileExtension = os.path.splitext(fileName)

for page_number, page_data in enumerate(doc):
txt = pytesseract.image_to_string(page_data).encode(“utf-8”)
print(“Page # {} — {}”.format(str(page_number),txt))

使用pdfminer.six。这里是文档:https://pdfminersix.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html

将pdf转换为文本:

    def pdf_to_text():
        from pdfminer.high_level import extract_text

        text = extract_text('test.pdf')
        print(text)

它包括根据文档中的页数动态设置为每个PDF页创建一个新工作表。

import PyPDF2 as p2
import xlsxwriter

pdfFileName = "sample.pdf"
pdfFile = open(pdfFileName, 'rb')
pdfread = p2.PdfFileReader(pdfFile)
number_of_pages = pdfread.getNumPages()
workbook = xlsxwriter.Workbook('pdftoexcel.xlsx')

for page_number in range(number_of_pages):
    print(f'Sheet{page_number}')
    pageinfo = pdfread.getPage(page_number)
    rawInfo = pageinfo.extractText().split('\n')

    row = 0
    column = 0
    worksheet = workbook.add_worksheet(f'Sheet{page_number}')

    for line in rawInfo:
        worksheet.write(row, column, line)
        row += 1
workbook.close()

我正在添加代码来实现这一点: 这对我来说很好:
