How To Read A PDF File With Tkinter - Python Tkinter GUI Tutorial

In this video I'll show you how to read a simple PDF file with TKinter.
We'll open the PDF file using PyPDF2, and read it into a Tkinter Text() widget. Reading simple pdf files with Python is pretty easy, it only gets more complicated when the pdf files start using images and input fields and things like that ;-)

instead of reading the PDF content, is there a simple way of just displaying the first page of the PDF? for example displaying it on a Frame or Label?

Hey please tell me how to open multiple pages in this GUI.

[@KristiaansPaaps]

These videos are super helpful for beginner programmers, thank you!
I have a problem with texts in Tkinter , maybe you have a quick answer..
In this case app does not extract (or visualize in text box) words that include letters with some diacritic marks (like ā, ž, ņ). Diacritic marks are also displayed as weird symbols if a text from text box is saved to .txt file. I guess it has to do something with encoding?

Is there a way to make it then when an entry box appears, the user can already type without having to click on it?

[@darshanpanchal3046]

Entry.focus() " do it just after entry is packed"

[@darshanpanchal3046]

Here is your solution

Hey John, thanks for the cool vid! I kept getting this error on the final run: "PdfReadWarning: PdfFileReader stream/file object is not in binary mode. It may not be read correctly. [pdf.py:1079] Exception in Tkinter callback." If anybody else gets it...The fix is: add the parameter mode='rb' to filedialog.askopenfile(), It opens it in binary mode and then PdfFileReader works on the welcome.py file. Go fig' . Thanks again.

Most appreciated, thanks John!
