PyPDF2 is a fork from the no-longer-maintained pyPdf approved by the latter's founder.
PyPDF2 2.0+ supports Python 3.6 and later. PyPDF2 1.27.10 supported Python 2.7 to 3.10.
pyPdf is vendored into several projects. That means the code of pyPdf was copied into that project.
Projects that depend on PyPDF2:
- Camelot: A Python library to extract tabular data from PDFs
- edi: Electronic Data Interchange modules
- amazon-textract-textractor: Analyze documents with Amazon Textract and generate output in multiple formats.
- maigret: Collect a dossier on a person by username from thousands of sites
- deda: tracking Dots Extraction, Decoding and Anonymisation toolkit
- opencanary
- Document Conversions
- pdfalyzer: A PDF analysis tool for visualizing the inner tree-like data structure of a PDF in spectacularly large and colorful diagrams as well as scanning the binary streams embedded in the PDF for hidden potentially malicious content.
