The idea behind this library is to enable post-extraction processing of unstructured text content, the best-known example being pdf files. The main idea is to robustly and securely separate the text body from its headers and footers.

What's more, the lib is written in pure Python and has no dependencies other than the standard lib.

Features:

• Header and Footer Extraction: Automatically identifies and extracts headers and footers from the document.
• Body Extraction: Separates the main content of the document from headers and footers.
• Page Association: Uses page association techniques to ensure accurate extraction of headers and footers across multiple pages.
• Robustness: Designed to handle various document structures and formats, ensuring reliable extraction even in complex layouts.
• Pure Python Implementation: No external dependencies, making it easy to integrate into existing Python projects.
• Easy to Use: Simple API for extracting headers, footers, and body content from documents.
• Compatibility: Works with text extracted from PDF files using libraries like PyPDF, PyMuPDF, and pdfplumber.
• Performance: Efficiently processes large documents with minimal overhead.
• Open Source: Licensed under Apache 2.0, allowing for free use and modification in both personal and commercial projects.
