【记录】尝试使用PDFMiner将不可复制的PDF转换为文本或HTML

【背景】

折腾：

【未解决】将不可拷贝复制的PDF中的表格数据导出并转换为xml格式数据

期间，打算去试试使用PDFMiner去把PDF，且是个加了密，不可拷贝的PDF，看看能否转换为文本或HTML。

【折腾过程】

1.找到主页：

PDFMiner

去：

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pdfminer/

下载：

pdfminer-20131113.tar.gz

2.解压后去安装：

然后再去试试。

然后在：

中找到：

pdf2txt.py

然后去试试：

3.结果竟然出错：

5.然后再去试试，看看能否用PDFMiner去解密，结果没有找到这些选项。。。

【总结】

最终放弃使用PDFMiner，暂时由于该程序有bug，无法用其将pdf转换为html或文本。
