two single row tables in two separate pdfs don't bet read by camelot as tables

Windows-10-10.0.19043-SP0 Python 3.9.6 (tags/v3.9.6:db3ff76, Jun 28 2021, 15:26:21) [MSC v.1929 64 bit (AMD64)] NumPy 1.21.2 OpenCV 4.5.3 Camelot 0.10.1

Describe the bug 2 of 55 pdfs with K-12 education table data have one row tables that don’t process as tables. https://www.dpi.nc.gov/media/8350/open https://www.dpi.nc.gov/media/8325/open

It doesn’t find a table, likely related to one row entry.

Steps to reproduce the bug ran: tables = camelot.read_pdf(weburl, pages=‘all’) where weburl is set to the above two urls in a loop.

Expected behavior

Should have one row table output for these two separate 1 page pdfs.

Code

tables = camelot.read_pdf(weburl, pages=‘all’)

import camelot

Additional context

there are 55 educator prep urls being cycled through in a loop. These two failed to produce tables, and I bet it’s related to only have one row entry after headers or something.

Yeah it wasn’t returning a table on those two examples, I thought it may have been due to one line tables. It was odd that out of 55 pdfs with similar table formatting, the only two that failed to return tables were the one data row tables in those 2 pdfs.

I’ll try the suggestions you provided and see if that works when I can. Thank you.

If just not return the table, I guess it’s because the background color from table.

Try to use line_scale (docs https://camelot-py.readthedocs.io/en/master/user/advanced.html#detect-short-lines) argument to get fine tune on line detection.

tables = camelot.read_pdf(weburl, line_scale=45, pages=‘all’)

Another thing to try is background_process (docs https://camelot-py.readthedocs.io/en/master/user/advanced.html#process-background-lines), because header line is totally black.

Sorry, I haven’t had time to try the fix on this project yet. Had to back burn it for a bit.
