from pdfminer.layout import LAParams
from pdfminer.pdfpage import PDFPage
import sys
import string

def convert_pdf_2_text(path):
    rsrcmgr 
 
= PDFResourceManager()
    retstr = StringIO()
    device = TextConverter(rsrcmgr, retstr, codec=‘utf-8‘, laparams=LAParams())
    interpreter = PDFPageInterpreter(rsrcmgr, device)
    with open(path, ‘rb‘) as fp:
        for page in PDFPage.get_pages(fp, set()):
            interpreter.process_page(page)
        text 
 
= retstr.getvalue()
    device.close()
    retstr.close()
    return text
