Create PDF from a list of images
use PDF::FromImage;...my $pdf = PDF::FromImage->new;$pdf->load_images(@allPagesDir);$pdf->write_file($bookName . '.pdf'); I need to do something very similar to this, but in Python. I know the pyPdf module, but I would like something simple.

Code to extract text from pdf to excel

how do I automate extracting data from two pdfs and input into an excel sheet according to an order number
Entering things in Excel is very easy. Extracting things from PDF is a pain. This (https://github.com/pdfminer/pdfminer.six) gets pretty close to what you need, but it may be easier to use this to just convert the entire PDF to text and parse the text to extract the info you need.
