Python - OCR - pytesseract для PDF

Question

Я пытаюсь запустить следующий код:

import cv2
import pytesseract

img = cv2.imread('/Users/user1/Desktop/folder1/pdf1.pdf')
text = pytesseract.image_to_string(img)
print(text)

, который выдает мне следующую ошибку:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/user1/PycharmProjects/project1/python_file.py", line 5, in <module>
    text = pytesseract.image_to_string(img)
  File "/Users/user1/PycharmProjects/project1/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pytesseract/pytesseract.py", line 346, in image_to_string
    return {

    return next(self.gen)

    image, extension = prepare(image)

    raise TypeError('Unsupported image object')
TypeError: Unsupported image object

Как я могу заставить его работать для файла PDF?

Answer 2

Это сработало для меня:

import os
from PIL import Image
from pdf2image import convert_from_path
import pytesseract

filePath = '/Users/user1/Desktop/folder1/pdf1.pdf'
doc = convert_from_path(filePath)
path, fileName = os.path.split(filePath)
fileBaseName, fileExtension = os.path.splitext(fileName)

for page_number, page_data in enumerate(doc):
    txt = pytesseract.image_to_string(Image.fromarray(page_data)).encode("utf-8")
    print("Page # {} - {}".format(str(page_number),txt))
