pyPdf

Original pure-Python PDF manipulation library: reading, merging, cropping, and rotating pages, encryption/decryption, and text extraction — the ancestor codebase that both PyPDF2 and, eventually, today's pypdf were built from. The project's own page states it is 'no longer updated,' with its last release dating to December 2012; kept here for historical completeness rather than as something to newly adopt.
