PDF Viewer for Python Tkinter

问题

I am currently looking for a possibility to display PDF Files inside a Tkinter application (displaying them e.g. in a Frame widget or similar).

Is there already a solution for this problem?

I already searched SO, used ddg an others but did not find anything for that purpose. Only thing I found was how to print the contents of a tk.Canvas to PDF - is there a way to load a PDF into a Canvas?

Finally I came to a solution I can work with.

Using pypdfocr and its pypdfocr_gs library I call

pypdfocr.pypdfocr_gs.PyGs({}).make_img_from_pdf(pdf_file)

to retrieve jpg images and then I use PIL to get ImageTk.PhotoImage instances from it and use them in my code.

ImageTk.PhotoImage(_img_file_handle)

Will add a proper example as soon as I can.

Edit:

As promised here comes the code


    import pypdfocr.pypdfocr_gs as pdfImg
    from PIL import Image, ImageTk
    import Tkinter as tk
    import ttk

    import glob, os

    root=tk.Tk()

    __f_tmp=glob.glob(pdfImg.PyGs({}).make_img_from_pdf("\tmp\test.pdf")[1])[0]
    #                             ^ this is needed for a "default"-Config
    __img=Image.open(__f_tmp)

    __tk_img=ImageTk.PhotoImage(__img)

    ttk.Label(root, image=__tk_img).grid()

    __img.close()
    os.remove(__f_tmp)

    root.mainloop()

Edit:

Using viranthas pypdfocr version there seems to be a bug inside the handling of Windows 10 and pythons subprocess:

# extract from pypdfocr_gs:
def _run_gs(self, options, output_filename, pdf_filename):
        try:
            cmd = '%s -q -dNOPAUSE %s -sOutputFile="%s" "%s" -c quit' % (self.binary, options, output_filename, pdf_filename)

            logging.info(cmd)        

            # Change this line for Windows 10:
            # out = subprocess.check_output(cmd, shell=True)
            out = subprocess.check_output(cmd)
# end of extract

Your search keywords are "python pdf parsing". Google turns up this SO question and pdfminer. There was also this review that settled on pdfminer as the best of a not-great choice, but it is two years older than the latest pdfminer release. There are also pdfminer versions for Py3 and for 2&3.
