Welcome folks today in this post we will be building a pdf editor gui desktop app using pypdf2 and docx module in python. All the full source code of the application will be given below.
Get Started
In order to get started you need to install the following libraries using the pip command as shown below
pip install pypdf2
pip install python-docx
After installing this libraries make an app.py file and copy paste the following code
