February 21, 2024PDF Table Extraction
if you're trying to get data that would be on the sec.gov website (10-Qs/10-Ks/etc) I would recommend looking at their API which will ultimately be much easier to extract the right data than trying to parse PDFs. You will also know that the information is accurate rather than hoping that the PDF extractor tool worked right. You can also checkout websites like bamsec.com which can get specific weird tables out of financial statements if you're looking for something more obscure/company specific. If you really want to parse PDFs I don't have a ton of ideas other than what you've tried, parsing PDFs is a pain and I'd really try to avoid it if I were you. Maybe see if you can find an XML version of the PDFs (assuming they're public info) that would be easier to parse using beautifulsoup in python or something similar. More on reddit.com

January 16, 2024[Complete Beginner] I want to extract tabular data from a PDF for subsequent analysis
I did a fair bit of research into extracting tabular data from PDF recently. I found that doing it programmatically is an absolute mess since PDF is a terribly unstructured format. My data was all text selectable, but even a simple select and copy was awful because of all the extra/missing spaces and newlines. The best solution I found for selectable text was the "table copy" tool in KDE's Okular PDF viewer. Okular is free and open source, and it allows you to draw a rectangle and click in the row/column delimiters. It copies it as tab separated values, which you can then just paste into a file. It's not exactly automatic, and won't work with non-selectable files, but it still saved me a ton of time.

After struggling a little bit, I found a way.
For each page of the file, it was necessary to define into tabula's read_pdf function the area of the table and the limits of the columns.
Here is the working code:
import pypdf
from tabula import read_pdf
# Get the number of pages in the file
pdf_reader = pypdf.PdfReader(pdf_file)
n_pages = len(pdf_reader.pages)
# For each page the table can be read with the following code
table_pdf = read_pdf(
pdf_file,
guess=False,
pages=1,
stream=True,
encoding="utf-8",
area=(96, 24, 558, 750),
columns=(24, 127, 220, 274, 298, 325, 343, 364, 459, 545, 591, 748),
)

use library tabula (note that the package name tabula is not correct, the correct one is tabula-py)
pip install tabula-py
then extract it
import tabula
# this reads page 63
dfs = tabula.read_pdf(url, pages=63, stream=True)
# if you want read all pages
dfs = tabula.read_pdf(url, pages=all)
df[1]
By the way, I tried reading PDF files by using another way. Then it works better than library tabula. I will post it soon.

r/Python on Reddit: Extracting information (Text, Tables, Layouts) from PDFs using OCR.
February 21, 2024 -
I've received an assignment whereby I am required to extract texts, tables, layouts, headers, titles, etc from PDFs (Multi-page).
These PDFs have actual text on them and not images.
So far I've tried using Camelot, PyMuPDF, and Nougat. Unfortunately, none of these modules are able to meet my client's expectations.
Due to this, I've tried AWS Textract. I've showed a sample result of Textract and they immediately loved it. However, only then they mentioned that the PDFs have sensitive data and cannot be exposed via the internet.
Now, they are looking to find an on-prem solution to get similar results as AWS Textract.
Anyone know any kind of software/tool/python module that can be self-hosted and able to get similar results as AWS Textract?
Thanks in advance.
