Hi. Thank you for this video.Follwoed the exact steps. For images, the code is working and output is coming as expected but for scanned pdfs, the output is generated with random alphabets and missing out a lot of text. Why is that so? what is the solution for this issue ?
First of all, thank you for this excellent explanation, if I want to extract scanned PDF file contains complicated table to csv file, do you have any suggestions?
You have to use regex and then map va values to field for a line... Then appen new line... Direct from image to csv might not be possible using these libraries
Thanks for the video, i required some help in cropping the header and then extracting the text from the file, can you suggest how i can do that, my pdf files are a mix of scanned pdf and text pdf files
sir... thnks a lot for the info... can u provide me python script for extracting company details like companyname,adress and all from multiple images which are in pdf format... i went through lots of reasearch but didnt get. help me out
I am also getting blank .txt files for PDFs. The code is working for images. Would you mind giving a more detailed suggestion for what I should do? Thanks so much!
@@Python2020 Thank you so much for your prompt reply! I printed the variable, and it shows up blank for all the PDF files. In one of the PDF files, I put in an image I produced by typing something in Word and then turning it into an image using Snipping Tool, so I don't think image quality is causing the problem.
@@Python2020 Nevermind. I discovered that I accidentally put in "5" as the page number instead of "500". I changed it to 500 and now it is working! I find this very interesting, though, because most of my PDFs are 5 pages long or shorter. Thanks so much for your help!
Hi , if i have a pdf of 10 pages and i want to extract the data for only 7th page , how can i specify that ? Where do i need to do changes ? Thanks ! Waiting for the reply
Hi Sir, I'm working with scanned PDFs (bank statements). The PDF quality is low, so I can't extract the text accurately. Are there any other ways to extract the text accurately?
@@Python2020 thanks for your response will you tell me exactly where i need to change the code resume_pdfs=glob.glob(r"/content/drive/MyDrive/New folder (2)") for pdf_path in resume_pdfs: pages=convert_from_path(pdf_path,500) for pageNum, imgBlob in enumerate(pages): text=pytesseract.image_to_string(imgBlob,lang='eng') with open(f'{pdf_path[:-4]}_page_{pageNum}.txt','w') as the_file: the_file.write(text)

When you will read scanned pdf with pypdf2 it should throw error inside catch you can can write code for reading scanned pdf... My way
Is there a possible method to extract without using the tesseract model but using py libraries only
There is a video on my UA-cam channel but it won't work for scanned pdf Or image pdf.. Only on text pdf.... ua-cam.com/video/7f0Bc2ateqQ/v-deo.html
@@Python2020 thanks for the reply...but do you know is that possible to do with only libraries
Cool 👍
Thank you
but where you trained images in Teseract OCR tools
We don't have to train OCR engine.. I think You are refering to train ML models to identify right lables
sir... thnks a lot for the info... can u provide me python script for extracting company details like companyname,adress and all from multiple images which are in pdf format... i went through lots of reasearch but didnt get. help me out
Would be complex, se there is one OCR video on this channel that might help
thnk you soo much sir@@Python2020

Try to print before writing the text file... See if dara is coming in variable or not

Use Azure OCR
how can i store all the text of different pages extracted from pdf into a single text page?
Use a single variable if pages are up to 10,20, once code goes out of the loop there you write the file
@@Python2020 thanks for your response will you tell me exactly where i need to change the code resume_pdfs=glob.glob(r"/content/drive/MyDrive/New folder (2)")
for pdf_path in resume_pdfs:
pages=convert_from_path(pdf_path,500)
for pageNum, imgBlob in enumerate(pages):
text=pytesseract.image_to_string(imgBlob,lang='eng')
with open(f'{pdf_path[:-4]}_page_{pageNum}.txt','w') as the_file:
the_file.write(text)
Sir, will it work with pycharm community edition?
Yes... Pycharm is just code editor.. I have also used community version
