edit

To use the pdf-parse package with Electron in Node, follow these steps:

1. Install the pdf-parse package using npm:

npm install pdf-parse

1. Require the pdf-parse package in your Electron app:

const PDFParser = require('pdf-parse');

1. Use the PDFParser.parse() method to parse the PDF file:

PDFParser.parse(fs.readFileSync('path/to/pdf/file.pdf'), function(err, data) {
  if (err) {
    console.log(err);
  } else {
    console.log(data);
  }
});

Note: fs is a built-in package in Node that provides file system-related functionality.

1. The data returned contains the parsed PDF document in JSON format, including metadata, text content, and page count.

You can use this data to implement text search, file indexing, or other PDF processing in your Electron app.
