this was super helpful. Had a directory of over 50 bank statements as .pdf files and needed to find which of these contained transactions at IKEA. this video guided me to at least grab the relevant file names to look at. cheers.

9:20 The only reason for using PIL is if you need to convert between image formats. Otherwise the raw data looks like it’s already in PNG format, that you can directly save to a file.

@stansuen8072 Жыл бұрын

Great video. Wonder if you have a process to convert the PDF document into responsive HTML or epub so that one can read the PDF in a device of smaller size than the PDF document is intended for. I believe re can help connect broken lines into a paragraph (as much as we can), reformat tabel as table and put images in the original location within the PDF document.

You need to use ocr if the text in the pdf is in the form of an image and not actual text, usually you can select actual text but not text in an image.

I struggled a bit today to find a solution first you need to have Java installed BEFORE you install tabula-py second you need JAVA_HOME variable to be set into the system variables with path to where it is located on your system (I hope you know how to do this, on windows go to terminal and type where java to find the right path) last install tabula-py hope it helps

I understand python libraries like Camelot, pdfminer can be used to extract data from a pdf.. however, my pdfs are a (not so great) scan of paper documents. As a result, none of the open-source OCR solutions (paddle , ocrmypdf , Pytesseract , easyocr , keras_ocretc) seem to work on it. With all the hype around AI, is there any LLM AI tool that is worth trying?

@rafikyahia7100 6 ай бұрын

One idea i can think of is to preprocess the scanned image maybe, more contrast and upscale

@scottboudreaux4624 4 ай бұрын

As far as OCR tools, Abbyy Finereader (unfortunately it is not open-source) has worked the best for me to reconstruct scanned documents. It does have a batch convert option if you have many pdf's that need to be OCR'd. I haven't found any python OCR options that can match it's accuracy. It does have the option to use custom trained pattern recognition among many other abilities.
