I have a pdf document containing several images. I want to retrieve the names of these images.
I know that ExtractImages extracts images from PDF. I feel that this will somewhere have the functionality to fetch the name of the image.
How to achieve this using python

I have 3 tables (image pasted) all 3 table(have same columns) look same and i want data of address column (yellow colour) of 3 tables stored inside a variable.
There are different ways to handle extraction of tables from pdf. The final solution will depend primarily on individual pdf that you need to read. Some variables to think about when choosing the solution are:
is the pdf just an image saved as pdf (rastered image of a scanned
document)?
what is the quality of pdf?
is there any noise in the pdf
files (e.g. spots caused by a printer) you need to get rid of?
is the table in pdf skewed?
how many pages has a pdf?
how many pages a table spans across?
how many documents do you need to scan?
There are many solutions to extract tables from pdf ranging from table-specialized OCR services to python utility libraries to help you build your own extraction program.
An example of a powerful tool to convert data from tables from pdf to excel is Camelot, which you have included in your question's tags. It abstracts a lot of complexity involved in the task at hand. You just install it
and access it for example like that:
import camelot
file = 'https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG21/working-examples/pdf-table/table.pdf'
tables = camelot.read_pdf(file)
tables[0].to_excel('table.xlsx')
As I mentioned, the devil lies in the individual characteristics of a table and a pdf file.
I have folders that contains many jpg files.I want them to convert into PDF files.
Every folder should made into a separate PDF.
Please help I am new to python.
And if possible can I do it in one shot.

The best method to convert multiple images to PDF so far is to use PIL purely
So I have these PDFs that are scanned copies of a structured feedback form. The form has these checkboxes and spaces for hand written notes. I am trying to extract the data from these PDFs and save it to an unstructured CSV file.
Now using pytesseract I am able to grab the printed text (by first converting the PDF to image) but I am not able to capture the handwritten content. Is there any of doing it.
I am enclosing a sample form for reference.

PyTesseract is an OCR program. It has not been trained or designed to recognize handwriting. So you have two options: 1) Retrain it for handwriting (this would be quite time-consuming and complicated though) 2) Use another library actually meant for recognizing handwriting and not printed text like this one: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/computer-vision/quickstarts/python-hand-text
I need to find a tool (python, adobe suite, some cmd line utility, etc) that can extract images from a PDF as individual PDF files - not jpegs, pngs, etc.
Does such a thing exist? Seems like there is a bunch of stuff out there for extracting image files to png, jpeg, etc, but nothing for extracting the images as PDFs. A strange request I know.
I am working with a large set of PDFs that contain images that are comprised of all kinds of different images formats, bitmaps, vectors, etc. If there was some way to programmatically pull out images as pdfs it would save me a lot of time.
Right now I am selecting a portion of the page in the PDF in acrobat pro, choosing to edit in illustrator, and then saving as PDF.
Very time consuming.
Any ideas?
You could use poppler's pdfimages utility to extract all bitmap images as-is from a PDF. In a second step, you can convert these bitmaps back to PDFs. img2pdf seems like a good candidate for this.
Hopefully this question wont be asking for too much and can be understandable, but any help would be amazing. Currently I am doing [astronomy] research, and I am required to construct a webpage of quasar spectra to look like this...Sample of final product
This is to be done so by downloading each individual spectra from this source here...https://data.sdss.org/sas/dr13/eboss/spectro/redux/images/v5_9_0/v5_9_0/3590-55201/.
The problem is, I am struggling to find a way to download large quantities of png files all at once. For some reason, all the spectra on this link do not have their coordinates (Right ascension and declination) on the file name. Whereas the code provided to me as an example does.
In the situation that I have the png "00:14:53.206-09:12:17.70-4536-55857-0770.png" downloaded, it should be displayed. However as mentioned before, all the files I have viewed when trying to do this myself, do not list those. My page looks like direct code, no actual images. But it remains in code because it cannot pull forward those spectra since they are not downloaded, and I would prefer to have them assorted by their coordinates.
Downloading a FITS file which contains the quasar catalog was suggested to me. Presumably, the coords would in some way have to be appended to the png files downloaded. Apparently this is all supposed to be easy.
In summary: How do I download large quantities of png files, where they do not display their coordinates. I also need a method of renaming the image files to so that their file names correspond with the coordinates, and then print to a webpage.
When displaying images on a website (regardless of where you sourced the images from, or the format - jpg/png etc), it is advisable that you COMPRESS your images. This is especially valid in cases where the images are big, and where there are a number of images on the page (pages like yours!). There are a few online image compressors like tinypng (where you can upload ~30 images at at time to compress, and it compresses both jpg and pngs) or pngcrush.
Compressing images this way will reduce the file size (greatly in some cases) but the image appears the same. This will very much improve the load time on your site.
When you download a file (any file, not just an image file, you can save it as anything you want (name-wise) so you can rename the files on download. You will need to upload all the [preferably compressed] images to a web server in order to display them on a webpage. If you don't know ANY webscripting, start with learning basic html (you won't need a lot for this project), but the best way to display the images would probably be to use a loop to loop through the image folder using either javascript or php
