we are writing a script to read text and data from PDF and convert it to csv.  we are using Python language for the same. 

As this is not working as expected, we are now converting PDF to docx manually and then conceveting docx to CSV using python.

 

we are planning to use Adobe acrobat proDC for the same( purchase), 

Question is do we have any API to perform such conversations or sdks .

Bear in mind Acrobat Pro is a single user interactive tool, so it is not suitable if you want a batch utility for the background, or a web service etc. etc. There isn't much of an API for document conversion, but it can sometimes be persuaded to do such a task. You can download the Acrobat SDK (but not Acrobat) for free.

You can use JavaScript to convert PDF files to other formats in Acrobat.

Read the documentation of the saveAs method of the Document object.

Hi,

 

You could use the adobe document cloud, which supports other languages - https://www.adobe.io/apis/documentcloud/dcsdk/
