Specifying area and using nospreadsheet=True doesn't work

[Kanz95]

I have a pdf where guessing or autodetect tables isn't able to find the table and the table is a Stream table(columns separated by white spaces). I used tabula-py where the code goes like:

df=tabula.read_pdf("sample.pdf",nospreadsheet=True,area=(321.3,49.459,836.719,567.109))
I get an empty dataframe after executing .But mentioning the same area and using it through tabula in windows produces me a output which is what i want.

is there any way?

What was the R code you used? The analogue should be:

extract_tables("sample.pdf", spreadsheet = FALSE, area = list(c(321.3,49.459,836.719,567.109)))

You may want to try with guess = FALSE, as well:

extract_tables("sample.pdf", spreadsheet = FALSE, guess = FALSE, area = list(c(321.3,49.459,836.719,567.109)))
