Title: "Python PDF to Text Converter Code and Implementation" Search terms: "python pdf to text converter", "python pdf extract text" Software: Python, PyPDF2

This code uses the PyPDF2 library in Python to convert a pdf file to text. The pdf_to_text function takes the pdf file name as a parameter and opens it in read binary mode. It uses the PdfFileReader class from PyPDF2 to read the pdf file. It then initializes an empty string and iterates through all the pages of the pdf file using the getNumPages and getPage methods of the PdfFileReader class. The extractText method of the getPage method is used to extract the text of each page and add it to the text variable. The function finally returns the full text of the pdf file.

In this example, the function is called with the file name "example.pdf" and the resulting text is printed on the console.
