Aim to split them into 2 folders only. Don't want to extract text or whatever.

  • Thanks @SavvasNicolaou, I found this snippet (https://stackoverflow.com/a/59421043/12307615) might work for a half pipeline. It prints out the pdf types. But how to store the PDFs into respective folder automatically? Imagine after running the code, all PDF files already split into 2 folders. – Teoh Sin Yee Apr 08 '22 at 04:26
  • To be honest I'm not sure. I haven't used python in a while...but you could try to use a loop and move each file based on searchability and filesize using import os. Unless it is something more complicated? – Savvas Nicolaou Apr 08 '22 at 04:34
  • Thanks @SavvasNicolaou. Have solved it recently. 1st, I loop through all files and check the PDF types of each of them. (Scanned-image, Non-scanned-image) Then use shutil to move the files to their respective folders. – Teoh Sin Yee Apr 12 '22 at 06:04
