Mining Text from PDF Files, Part 3: PDF with an Image

Intro I wanted to find out how to mine text from PDF files with R. I’m experimenting with different formats, the previous ones having been text and tables. In this last one I will extract text that’s in an image that’s inside a PDF file. I’m assuming you’re using RStudio as your IDE (Integrated Development Environment). I’m sure most of this can be done with using something else as well.
