I want it to work for me:

Change the indices in HarvestIndices class to match the fetch points of your pdf. OR just change the horrible implementation of get_parsed_data() to a generic one that doesn't break all the times(please fork and do that + send a PR)

Now it does(probably).if it doesn't, create a Bug report on Github Issue Tracker

Note:

This is just a poc, will break in most cases.

Working Probability: 69%. Well, because its dumb and assumes that all pdfs are identical with 10 rows. Though it does perform a single iteration filtering to remove a single diff to ~~~~match with base-case. It uses embedded indices to harvest all the required data(hence called harvest indices), so it probably won't work for Different Departments OR Semesters (Though , might be made to work by changing the harvest indices).

A Better way might be to parse the pdf and use regex to match patterns and harvest data. The fix is not that hard, just requires a rewrite of get_parsed_data() keeping its signature same, But i am not motivated enough to do that

Starting from v0.2.0. desp should work with most, if not all student slips, since now it doesn't depend on embedded fetch indices , rather its somewhat smart and fetch's data based on patterns.
