pdfplumber VS zotero-better-notes

- [pdfplumber](https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber)

I recently published a story that was based on some data analysis I did of a report I obtained from the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services in VA. I wanted to share a quick walkthrough of how I extracted the data from tables in a PDF using a Python module called PDFplumber. I also uploaded a video to Youtube if you prefer that.

I've been working with pdfplumber, which is built atop pdfminer.six. It allows one to break the page up into sections and extract text from them in turn, which may help keep columns separated better.

You could try pdfplumber

I'm not sure if there is a way to reliably detect bold characters: https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber/issues/724

pdfplumber is also pretty good. It can help segment text a bit better than pdfminer can alone.

To handle machine generated one, a possible package is pdfplumber.

Die you check the `zotero-better-notes`? [1]

> LaTex math in Zotero note is no longer a dream. The `zotero-better-notes` addon now supports this feature!

You can do this with the Better Notes Plugin ... Read the manual, there's an English version. You'll have to add the notes to zotero first and then use the better Notes sync manager to sync them where you like in your vault.

for those, i think https://github.com/windingwind/zotero-better-notes/ responds a bit to them. Some are a bit of a workaround like "automatically exporting and syncing notes to a markdown file"
