Question

I have experimented with both pypdf and pdfMiner to extract text from PDF files. I have some unfriendly PDFs that only pdfMiner is able to extract successfully. I am using the code here to extract text for the entire file. However, I would really like to extract text on a per page basis like the pages[i].extract_text() functionality in pypdf. Does anyone know how to extract text per page using pdfMiner?

Answer 1

for pageNumber, page in enumerate(PDFDocument.get_pages()):
    if pageNumber == 42:
        #do something with the page

There is a pretty good article here.
