Initialize the extractor with an API key and extract content from a PDF file.

from opendataloader_pdf import OpenDataLoaderPDF loader = OpenDataLoaderPDF(api_key=os.environ.get('API_KEY', '')) with open('document.pdf', 'rb') as f: result = loader.extract(f) print(result['content'][:200])

Debug

Known issues

breakingThe `-–hybrid-fallback` default changed to `false` in v2.0.1, causing hybrid extraction to fail fast instead of falling back to rule-based extraction.

fix

Set `hybrid_fallback=True` explicitly if you want the old fallback behavior.

affects: >=2.0.1

gotchaThe library requires Java 11+ at runtime. If Java is missing or too old, extraction fails with a subprocess error.

fix

Install Java 11+ and ensure `java` is on PATH.

affects: all

deprecatedThe old `–-extract-text` flag is deprecated in v2.3.0 in favor of `–-output-format text`.

fix

Use `output_format='text'` instead of `extract_text=True`.

affects: >=2.3.0
