I am looking for script to extract table text from pdfs using pdfminer. I have tried tabula but I am looking to integrate the normal text and table text to a database. Any ideas on how to implement this are welcome.

  • I have tried using pdfminer and tabula. Both are good for specific purposes. Pdfminer extracts all the text in the document where as tabula extracts only table related text. I need to get the table related text in the document. – Aravind Feb 07 '20 at 08:18

As many people provided in this link: How to extract tables from a pdf with PDFMiner?

You can use Camelot to extract tables from PDF Miner.
