Python Text Extractor 📌 A Python-based text extractor designed to extract text from medical documents and store it in key-value pairs.

🚀 Features Extracts text from medical documents (PDFs, images, etc.)

Uses PyTesseract for Optical Character Recognition (OCR)

Supports preprocessing using OpenCV (grayscale, thresholding, noise removal)

Stores extracted data in structured key-value format

Optionally saves output to Excel/CSV

🛠 Tech Stack Python

PyTesseract (OCR)

OpenCV (Image Processing)

Pandas (Data Handling)

Streamlit (Optional: UI for visualization)

📦 Installation Clone the repository:

bash Copy Edit git clone https://github.com/Omkar897/Python-Text-Extractor.git cd Python-Text-Extractor Install dependencies:

bash Copy Edit pip install -r requirements.txt Ensure Tesseract OCR is installed:

Download from: Tesseract OCR

Add its path to your system environment variables

📜 Usage Run the extractor on an image/PDF:

bash Copy Edit python extract_text.py --input document.png --output result.json For UI-based extraction (using Streamlit):

bash Copy Edit streamlit run app.py

🏗 Future Enhancements ✅ Improve OCR accuracy with deep learning models ✅ Add support for handwritten text extraction ✅ Deploy as a web app for easy access
