PDFMiner is a tool for extracting information from PDF documents.
Unlike other PDF-related tools, it focuses entirely on getting and
analyzing text data. PDFMiner allows to obtain the exact location
of texts in a page, as well as other information such as fonts or
lines. It includes a PDF converter that can transform PDF files
into other text formats (such as HTML). It has an extensible PDF
parser that can be used for other purposes instead of text analysis.
This is actually pdfminer.six, a backwards-compatible fork of
PDFMiner using six for Python 2+3 compatibility.
