Textify-PDF is a Python script that extracts text from all PDF files in a specified folder path and saves them as .txt files. It uses the Tika library to extract text from the PDF files.
- Clone the repository or download the ZIP file and extract it to a folder.
- Install the required Python libraries using pip:
pip install -r requirements.txt
- Open a terminal or command prompt in the folder where you extracted the files.
- Run the script using the command:
python main.py - Enter the path to the folder containing the PDF files when prompted, eg: 'D:\CODES\textify-pdf'
The script will extract text from all PDF files in the specified folder and save them as .txt files in a "txt" subfolder. It also generates a zip file containing all the processed .txt files.
New feature: The script now supports processing of password-protected PDF files. If a password-protected PDF file is encountered, the script will skip the file and log a warning message.
