Question

尝试使用tabula（tabula-py）读取pdf文件时遇到以下错误。

有没有办法像大熊猫或其他一些lib一样在python中读取pdf？

请提出建议。

>>> from tabula import read_pdf
>>> df = read_pdf('OpTransactionHistory28-08-2018.pdf')

一种解决方法是pdftotext转换。

$ pdftotext OpTransactionHistory28-08-2018.pdf

只需查看@ace的provide链接并找到相关的内容即可

>>> from tabula import read_pdf
>>> df = read_pdf('OpTransactionHistory28-08-2018.pdf', pages='all', encoding='ISO-8859-1', multiple_tables=True)

Answer 1

pandas层的错误通常可能是由于表之间的列数不同而引起的，因为pandas试图从tabula-java输出中提取一个DataFrame。使用multiple_tables=True可以避免这种限制，因为表格具有表格格式的边界。

我也注意到了这个相关的错误，但是看起来与我看到的有所不同。 https://github.com/chezou/tabula-py#i-faced-cparsererror-how-can-i-extract-multiple-tables

如果能提供您的熊猫版本，将不胜感激。
