Subject: [CODE4LIB] Converting old tables in PDF to CSV
[Some people who received this message don't often get email from [log in to unmask] Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification ]
Hello List,
Has anyone had success converting tables in a PDF to CSV? These are scans of paper from the 70s on forward. I know this isn’t a super easy conversion, but I would think it’s not impossible either.
Thanks,
Andrea
