I tried the following code:
import camelot
pdf_path = '/YOUR/FILEPATH.pdf'
tables = camelot.read_pdf(pdf_path, flavor='stream')
Here are two problems:
- headers font is not properly read, so you find strange characters like
(cid:71)... - using
flavor='lattice', the table isn't detected. Usingflavor='stream', the table is detected, but the cells aren't properly detected.
At the moment, I think that Camelot can't properly extract this table. They are working on fixing the second problem (see this and this).

But extracttable.com is for image to other format. We need pdf to json. – Goutam Ghosh Sep 30 '20 at 11:49
