The below is the data I am having in a pdf file where I would like to extract the integer number 100 in the line "US stock price 100" using Keyword as "US stock price" using python?

****PDF FILE LINES BELOW*****

Abb price     50

Below is the code i have used for the text extraction:

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

You can try using the package tika.

from tika import parser

raw = parser.from_file('test.pdf')
print(raw['myText'])

Below is the code to search for the keyword in PDF file.

import PyPDF2
import re

object = PyPDF2.PdfFileReader("test.pdf")
numPages = object.getNumPages()
string = "US stock price"
for i in range(0, numPages):
    pageObj = object.getPage(i)
    print("this is page " + str(i)) 
    txt = pageObj.extractText() 
    resSearch = re.search(string, txt)
    print(resSearch)
