No need to add f.close() under the file context manager. The file context manager automatically handles that. Thanks for the helpful video :)

Hi, if we want to create a dynamic array of pages from a pdf file bases a string, how should we proceed? Suppose the pdf page has a specific text then the page no should be picked and the list should be created till the text is found in the pdf file. Once the text/string is not available on the pdf page then the separate pdf file should be created basis the page numbers

Hi, thanks for the video. I receive the following error: "PdfStreamError: Stream has ended unexpectedly". I did my research but could not find a proper solution. Any thoughts on why this occurred? Thanks.
