PDF to txt - split files

piyer · 04-25-2019, 04:16 PM

I am using ebook-convert command for PDF to text conversion, I want to output each page into a different text file.

Here are my questions:

1. Is there a CLI command to output each page into different files.
2. If not, how do I identify a page in the text file?
3. Is there a python API to do this?

Thanks in advance.

Use any of the many command line tools that split PDF files into pages, then convert each page into a txt file individually.
