Python使用PDFMiner解析PDF代码实例
近期在做爬虫时有时会遇到网站只提供pdf的情况,这样就不能使用scrapy直接抓取页面内容了,只能通过解析PDF的方式处理,目前的解决方案大致只有pyPDF和PDFMiner。因为据说PDFMiner更适合文本的解析,而我需要解析的正是文本,因此最后选择使用PDFMiner(这也就意味着我对pyPDF一无所知了)。
首先说明的是解析PDF是非常蛋疼的事,即使是PDFMiner对于格式不工整的PDF解析效果也不怎么样,所以连PDFMiner的开发者都吐槽PDF is evil. 不过这些并不重要。官方文档在此:http://www.unixuser.org/~euske/python/pdfminer/index.html
一.安装:
1.首先下载源文件包 http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pdfminer/,解压,然后命令行安装即可:python setup.py install
2.安装完成后使用该命令行测试:pdf2txt.py samples/simple1.pdf,如果显示以下内容则表示安装成功:
Hello World Hello World H e l l o W o r l d H e l l o W o r l d
3.如果要使用中日韩文字则需要先编译再安装:
# make cmap python tools/conv_cmap.py pdfminer/cmap Adobe-CNS1 cmaprsrc/cid2code_Adobe_CNS1.txtreading 'cmaprsrc/cid2code_Adobe_CNS1.txt'...writing 'CNS1_H.py'......(this may take several minutes) # python setup.py install
二.使用
由于解析PDF是一件非常耗时和内存的工作,因此PDFMiner使用了一种称作lazy parsing的策略,只在需要的时候才去解析,以减少时间和内存的使用。要解析PDF至少需要两个类:PDFParser 和 PDFDocument,PDFParser 从文件中提取数据,PDFDocument保存数据。另外还需要PDFPageInterpreter去处理页面内容,PDFDevice将其转换为我们所需要的。PDFResourceManager用于保存共享内容例如字体或图片。
Figure 1. Relationships between PDFMiner classes
比较重要的是Layout,主要包括以下这些组件:
LTPage
Represents an entire page. May contain child objects like LTTextBox, LTFigure, LTImage, LTRect, LTCurve and LTLine.
LTTextBox
Represents a group of text chunks that can be contained in a rectangular area. Note that this box is created by geometric analysis and does not necessarily represents a logical boundary of the text. It contains a list of LTTextLine objects. get_text() method returns the text content.
LTTextLine
Contains a list of LTChar objects that represent a single text line. The characters are aligned either horizontaly or vertically, depending on the text's writing mode. get_text() method returns the text content.
LTChar
LTAnno
Represent an actual letter in the text as a Unicode string. Note that, while a LTChar object has actual boundaries, LTAnno objects does not, as these are "virtual" characters, inserted by a layout analyzer according to the relationship between two characters (e.g. a space).
LTFigure
Represents an area used by PDF Form objects. PDF Forms can be used to present figures or pictures by embedding yet another PDF document within a page. Note that LTFigure objects can appear recursively.
LTImage
Represents an image object. Embedded images can be in JPEG or other formats, but currently PDFMiner does not pay much attention to graphical objects.
LTLine
Represents a single straight line. Could be used for separating text or figures.
LTRect
Represents a rectangle. Could be used for framing another pictures or figures.
LTCurve
Represents a generic Bezier curve.
官方文档给了几个Demo但是都过于简略,虽然给了一个详细一些的Demo,但链接地址是旧的现在已经失效,不过最终还是找到了新的地址:http://denis.papathanasiou.org/posts/2010.08.04.post.html
这个Demo就比较详细了,源码如下:

这段代码重点在于第128行,可以看到PDFMiner是一种基于坐标来解析的框架,PDF中能解析的组件全都包括上下左右边缘的坐标,如x0 = lt_obj.bbox[0]就是lt_obj元素的左边缘的坐标,同理x1则为右边缘。以上代码的意思就是把所有x0且x1的坐标相差在20%以内的元素分成一组,这样就实现了从PDF文件中定向抽取内容。
----------------补充--------------------
有一个需要注意的地方,在解析有些PDF的时候会报这样的异常:pdfminer.pdfdocument.PDFEncryptionError: Unknown algorithm: param={'CF': {'StdCF': {'Length': 16, 'CFM': /AESV2, 'AuthEvent': /DocOpen}}, 'O': '\xe4\xe74\xb86/\xa8)\xa6x\xe6\xa3/U\xdf\x0fWR\x9cPh\xac\xae\x88B\x06_\xb0\x93@\x9f\x8d', 'Filter': /Standard, 'P': -1340, 'Length': 128, 'R': 4, 'U': '|UTX#f\xc9V\x18\x87z\x10\xcb\xf5{\xa7\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00', 'V': 4, 'StmF': /StdCF, 'StrF': /StdCF}
从字面意思来看是因为这个PDF是一个加密的PDF,所以无法解析 ,但是如果直接打开PDF却是可以的并没有要求输密码什么的,原因是这个PDF虽然是加过密的,但密码是空,所以就出现了这样的问题。
解决这个的问题的办法是通过qpdf命令来解密文件(要确保已经安装了qpdf),要想在python中调用该命令只需使用call即可:
from subprocess import call call('qpdf --password=%s --decrypt %s %s' %('', file_path, new_file_path), shell=True)
其中参数file_path是要解密的PDF的路径,new_file_path是解密后的PDF文件路径,然后使用解密后的文件去做解析就OK了
