hello @Pythonology good stuff! Do you know what can be the case if PDFPlumber is not detecting a table, even tho all that page has is a table? it reads everything under normal text for some reason. Also, do you know how multi column PDFs are parsed?

In the last part of the video it is said that a table of content can be extracted with pymupdf, but I dont see anything like that in the code you are showing?
