Note
This repository is a legacy compatibility fork of PyPDF2 1.26.0. It retains the classic 1.x API for projects unable to upgrade to pypdf 3.x+, while incorporating critical stability patches:
PdfFileWriterstream guard: PreventsAttributeErrorwhen sweeping indirect references without a stream object.- Document permissions: Backported support for inspecting and setting PDF document permission flags.
For modern projects starting fresh, use upstream pypdf.
pip install git+https://github.com/boskowski/[email protected]PyPDF2 is a pure-python PDF library capable of splitting, merging together, cropping, and transforming the pages of PDF files. It can also add custom data, viewing options, and passwords to PDF files. It can retrieve text and metadata from PDFs as well as merge entire files together.
