Tools for viewing, extracting, and editing PDF files using Python libraries (pdfplumber and PyPDF2).
All scripts require dependencies:
pip3 install pdfplumber PyPDF2
Extract text from PDF (all pages or specific pages):
scripts/extract_text.py document.pdf scripts/extract_text.py document.pdf -p 1 3 5 scripts/extract_text.py document.pdf -o output.txt
View metadata and structure:
scripts/pdf_info.py document.pdf scripts/pdf_info.py document.pdf -f json
Combine multiple PDFs into one:
scripts/merge_pdfs.py file1.pdf file2.pdf file3.pdf -o merged.pdf
Split into individual pages:
scripts/split_pdf.py document.pdf -o output_dir/
Split by page ranges:
scripts/split_pdf.py document.pdf -o output_dir/ -m ranges -r "1-3,5-7,10-12"
Rotate all pages or specific pages:
scripts/rotate_pdf.py document.pdf -o rotated.pdf -r 90 scripts/rotate_pdf.py document.pdf -o rotated.pdf -r 180 -p 1 3 5
Add text overlay on a page:
scripts/edit_text.py document.pdf -o edited.pdf --overlay "New Text" --page 1 --x 100 --y 700 scripts/edit_text.py document.pdf -o edited.pdf --overlay "Watermark" --page 1 --x 200 --y 400 --font-size 20
Replace text (limited, works best for simple cases):
scripts/edit_text.py document.pdf -o edited.pdf --replace "Old Text" "New Text"
Note: PDF text editing is complex due to the format. The overlay method is more reliable than replacement.
