A Python program to convert a PDF to text
This program takes a PDF input and can output the text to the console for copying, .txt files, or .md files.
If you need to type the text from a PDF, this program may not be perfect, but formatting something that is close to the PDF is faster (and better in my opinion) than typing out the whole PDF.
git clone https://github.com/hussein-esmail7/pdf2text
cd pdf2text/
pip install requirements.txt
To run this program, you will need to have Python 3 installed, and install the required libraries from pip (using requirements.txt).
python3 pdf2text.py
This program takes 0 arguments, and uses the pick library to ask for options.
When outputting, the program will ask if you want to print to console, save as Plain Text file, or save as Markdown file.
