I've been using pypdf for working with PDFs in Python. My uses are pretty humble. I create Jupyter notebooks for managing sheet music that I receive in PDF format, allowing me to do things like break up a book of tunes into individual files, and so forth. This in turns makes it easier to pull up individual tunes on my tablet during a performance. But it looks like you can treat the PDF as a tree structure. I've used that feature for writing some recursive functions.



yeah, I've been using pypdf mainly, camelot-py for some table stuff, and a bit of pdfminer

I've been needing something to see the x/y bounds of tables to fix some edge cases with camelot, seem to be some good links in the comments here
