Load Options Leave feedback
On this page
Use groupdocs.parser.options.LoadOptions to pass extra parameters when opening a document, such as a password or file type when loading from a stream.
from groupdocs.parser import Parser
from groupdocs.parser.options import LoadOptions
options = LoadOptions("123456")
with Parser("protected.pdf", options) as parser:
reader = parser.get_text()
text = reader.read_to_end() if reader is not None else None
print(text if text is not None else "Text extraction isn't supported.")
The following sample file is used in this example: protected.pdf

When you read from a stream, provide LoadOptions so the parser knows how to open the content (for example, password-protected PDF streams).
from groupdocs.parser import Parser
from groupdocs.parser.options import LoadOptions
with open("protected.pdf", "rb") as stream:
options = LoadOptions("123456")
with Parser(stream, options) as parser:
reader = parser.get_text()
text = reader.read_to_end() if reader is not None else None
print(text if text is not None else "Text extraction isn't supported.")

- Always dispose of streams and parsers with
withstatements. - If a password is wrong, the parser raises an exception (see errors and exceptions).
- For additional options (e.g., file type hints), see the
LoadOptionsAPI reference.
