{pdfparser}
{pdfparser} provides tools for dealing with text extraction from PDFs.
It comes in handy when you do not only want to read in the text, for which I recommendbut also want to deal with PDF coordinates of the words, lines and blocks.
Right now its only function is read_bbox_layout_xhtml()
which parses XHTML files
from pdftotext
, part of poppler-utils
(manual can be found here).
You can install the development version from GitHub with:
# install.packages("devtools") devtools::install_github("balthasars/pdfparser")
This is a basic example which shows you how to solve a common problem:
library(pdfparser) doc <- system.file("extdata", "edi_2009_frcho43c6mmlx5lyohqy_doc#immrrkosg.html", package = "pdfparser") read_bbox_layout_xhtml(doc)
