convert PDFs to data format we can use
Shearyar opened this issue · comments
Datamining a pdf after turning it to latex is difficult. Attached is the result.
sorry, im not seeing any result?
I really don't think we should be shooting to go from pdf to latex either. That's a very complicated mapping in a lot of ways, and it's definitely not unique.
I think we should first try just going pdf -> txt and trying to get the data from there first and see how messy it is. It might even be okay, without having to do all that extra work!
https://github.com/danigm/poppler looks like it might be a good option.
@Shearyar any luck with this?
I didn't get far with reformatiing pdfs. Right now I'm learning ruby on
rails. I'll post the theorems from that textbook soon/
