Extract text from documents
The Textractor instance is the main entrypoint for extracting text. This method is backed by Apache Tika, a robust text extraction library written in Java. Apache Tika has support for a large number of file formats: PDF, Word, Excel, HTML and others. The Python Tika package automatically installs Tika and starts a local REST API instance used to read extracted data.

Extract text from PDF
