Description:

pythonpopplerqt5 21.3.0

A Python binding for libpoppler-qt5 that aims for completeness and for being
actively maintained.
Created and maintained by Wilbert Berendsen <[email protected]>, with help of
other contributors, especially where it concerns supporting many platforms and
build systems. Thanks for everyone’s help!
Homepage: https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-poppler-qt5/
Usage:
import popplerqt5
d = popplerqt5.Poppler.Document.load('file.pdf')

Documentation
The Python API closely follows the Poppler Qt5 C++ interface library API,
documented at https://poppler.freedesktop.org/api/qt5/ .
Note: Releases of PyQt5 < 5.4 currently do not support the QtXml module,
all methods that use the QDomDocument, QDomElement and QDomNode types are
disabled. This concerns the Document::toc() method and some constructors
and the store() methods in the Annotation subclasses. So, using
PyQt5 >= 5.4 is recommended.
Wherever the C++ API requires QList, QSet or QLinkedList, any
Python sequence can be used. API calls that return QList, QSet or
QLinkedList all return Python lists.
There are a few other differences:
Poppler::Document::getPdfVersion(int *major, int *minor) can simply be
called as d.getPdfVersion(), (where d is a Poppler::Document
instance); it will return a tuple of two integers (major, minor).
Poppler::Document has __len__ and __getitem__ methods,
corresponding to numPages() and page(int num).
Poppler::FontIterator (returned by Poppler::Document::newFontIterator)
is also a Python iterable (e.g. has __iter__() and __next__() methods).
So although you can use:
it = document.newFontIterator()
while it.hasNext():
fonts = it.next() # list of FontInfo objects
...
you can also use the more Pythonic:
for fonts in document.newFontIterator():
...
In addition to the Poppler namespace, there are two toplevel module
functions:

popplerqt5.version()
returns the version of the python-poppler-qt5 package as a tuple of
ints, e.g. (0, 18, 2).

popplerqt5.poppler_version()
returns the version of the linked Poppler-Qt5 library as a tuple of ints,
e.g. (0, 24, 5).
This is determined at build time. If at build time the Poppler-Qt5 version
could not be determined and was not specified, an empty tuple might be
returned.
