Features covered: * Basic metadata * Full text (with page numbers) * Text layout (coordinates, fonts) * Images (saved to disk) * Tables (as CSV) * Bookmarks / outline * Embedded files (attachments) * Optional OCR for scanned PDFs
You can pick and choose which of those you need; the code examples below let you toggle them on/off. | Feature | Recommended Library / CLI | Pros | Cons / Gotchas | |---------|---------------------------|------|----------------| | Basic metadata & text | PyPDF2 , pdfminer.six | Pure‑Python, no external dependencies | Struggles with complex layouts, no OCR | | Robust text + layout | pdfplumber (wraps pdfminer ) | Gives you bounding‑box coordinates, easy table extraction | Slower on huge PDFs | | Tables | tabula-py (Java), camelot | Detects table borders, outputs to DataFrames/CSV | Needs Java (tabula) or Ghostscript (camelot) | | Images & embedded files | pdfminer.six (low‑level), pymupdf (aka fitz ) | Fast, easy extraction of images & attachments | pymupdf is C‑based, needs binary wheels | | Full‑featured OCR | pdf2image + pytesseract , or ocrmypdf | Handles scanned PDFs end‑to‑end | Requires Tesseract OCR + poppler; slower | | Metadata & advanced content | Apache Tika (via tika-python ) | Handles many MIME types, auto‑detects language, OCR via Tesseract | Requires a Java runtime; heavier | | Command‑line quick‑look | exiftool , pdfinfo (poppler), mutool (MuPDF) | Great for batch scripts, no Python needed | Limited to what each tool exposes | | Deep NLP (NER, summarisation) | Hugging Face Transformers ( layoutlmv3 , pdfbert ) | Understands layout‑aware entities | Needs GPU for speed, heavier setup | 3. One‑stop Python script (extract most common features) Below is a single, modular script you can drop into a file called extract_agnibina_features.py . It uses only pure‑Python libraries ( pdfplumber , pymupdf ) plus optional OCR ( ocrmypdf ). Feel free to comment out the sections you don’t need. agnibina filetype.pdf

I’ll walk through the typical kinds of features you might want, the tools that can get them, and a ready‑to‑run Python snippet (plus a few command‑line alternatives) so you can start extracting right away. | Category | Typical Features | Why they’re useful | |----------|------------------|--------------------| | Metadata | Title, author, creation/modification dates, producer, PDF version, number of pages, subject, keywords | Quick bibliographic info; helps with indexing, deduplication, compliance | | Structural | Table of contents, headings hierarchy, page numbers, bookmarks, sections, paragraph breaks | Re‑creates the document outline; useful for navigation, summarisation, or building a search index | | Textual | Full‑text extraction, word‑frequency counts, named entities (people/places/orgs), key phrases, language detection | Core content for search, NLP, summarisation, sentiment analysis | | Layout | Location (x, y coordinates) of each text block, fonts, font sizes, colors, line spacing | Enables reconstruction of the original layout, detecting headings, footnotes, captions | | Tabular | All tables (cell‑by‑cell data), table captions, table bounding boxes | Essential for data mining, financial reports, scientific results | | Visual | Embedded images (raster & vector), image captions, image dimensions, DPI, color model | For image‑based analysis, OCR, checking for diagrams, extracting figures | | Annotations | Highlights, comments, sticky notes, form fields, signatures | Useful for reviewing workflows, compliance checks | | Embedded Files | Attachments, embedded spreadsheets, PDFs, ZIPs | May contain supplemental data | | OCR (if scanned) | Recognised text from images, confidence scores | Turns a scanned PDF into searchable text | It uses only pure‑Python libraries ( pdfplumber ,
