Add documentation re. common table-extraction challenges

Open jsvine opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

Perhaps a new section in the README.md file, at least for now, identifying common issues that people run into, especially with table extraction. For example:

  • Invisible lines causing problems

    • #311 (and h/t to @jfuruness in that thread for the inspiration to create such documentation)

  • Extracting tables with missing bottom borders

    • https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber/discussions/631
    • https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber/discussions/625

  • Extracting tables with missing side borders

    • https://github.com/jsvine/pdfplumber/discussions/625

Other suggested topics? Other examples to add to the topics above?
