tabula 1.2.0 / tabula-java 1.0.1

Tabula 1.2.0 includes an update of our processing backend (tabula-java 1.0.1), which improves table detection and extraction and fixes several bugs. Special thanks to Shuttleworth Foundation for funding @melisabok's port of tabula-java to PDFBox 2.0. This release includes two additional new features: templates and the Repeat to Next Page button.

This page contains technical release notes; please visit the Tabula official homepage for an overview of Tabula and quick download links:
http://tabula.technology/


If you have any issues with this version of Tabula, please let us know!

New features

  • Templates Now you can create selections, save them, and reload those same templates for another PDF. Templates are stored in a Template Library located below the Document Library. You can also export those selections to JSON and load them into Tabula on another computer (or use them as input for Tabula-Java). (#711)
  • Repeat to Next Page button: Now you can repeat a selection onto only the next page. (#715)

Bug fixes

  • Make Tabula work under a non-root path (#110, #547, #586)
  • Escape HTML (b29806a)
  • Use JBundler for managing Java dependencies.
  • Fixed a bug causing duplicate object IDs (cef4483)
  • Fixed: Windows throws when trying to mv a Tempfile (40e1d05)
  • Upgraded build to use jruby-9.1.15.0
  • Other fixes & improvements.

Known Issues & Caveats

  • Note: If you are using the .jar version (for Linux/etc), you now need to open your browser to the Tabula page (http://127.0.0.1:8080/) manually.
  • Caveat: Tabula only works on text-based PDFs (ones where you can select text). Scanned documents do not work, and we do not recommend OCR for large files unless you have a data cleaning plan since even state-of-the-art OCR software can have significant error rates.
  • _OS X Gatekeeper_: If you’re running Mac OS X 10.8 or later and get a message that says "Tabula can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" message, please let us know. (It shouldn't be happening anymore.) See this GateKeeper page for more assistance — your "Allow applications downloaded from" setting should be set to "Mac App Store and identified developers" or "Anywhere."

Downloads

Windows & Linux users need to have Java installed to use Tabula. You can download Java here. The Mac version contains an integrated copy of Java.

1.1.0-beta.1 Pre-release
Pre-release

tabula 1.1.0-beta.1 / tabula-java 0.9.0

We're proud to announce the first public beta preview of Tabula 1.1! This version contains several bugfixes and a rewrite of our processing backend which should provide a significant performance increase.

This is a beta release: because Tabula utilizes a new processing backend, users may encounter bugs that were not present in previous versions of Tabula. If you have any issues with this beta version of Tabula, please let us know!

New features / bugfixes

  • Tabula now extracts tables up to 7x faster than previous versions.
  • Table auto-detection has also been improved. (#456, tabulapdf/tabula-java#56)
  • If there’s an error during file upload & initial processing, warn the user. (#433)
  • Lots and lots of other improvements — the extraction and processing backend has been completely rewritten!

Known Issues & Caveats

  • Bug: This version of Tabula always shows that there is an update, even for the same version: "New version! Tabula 1.1.0-beta.1 is available (you have 1.1.0-beta1)".
  • Bug: Although the backend for the Tabula app has been rewritten using tabula-java instead of tabula-extractor, the "script" export option still generates commands to call the older tabula-extractor. To fix this, you may follow the download and example instructions for tabula-java, and replace the tabula command with java -jar tabula-0.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar in the generated script. (#484)
  • Caveat: Tabula only works on text-based PDFs (ones where you can select text). Scanned documents do not work, and we do not recommend OCR for large files unless you have a data cleaning plan since even state-of-the-art OCR software can have significant error rates.
  • _OS X Gatekeeper_: If you’re running Mac OS X 10.8 or later and get a message that says "Tabula can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" message, please let us know.

tabula 1.0.0 / tabula-extractor 0.7.6

We're proud to announce the release of Tabula 1.0!

This release features an overhaul of the Tabula user interface, designed by Jason Das (@floodfish). The new interface improves page selection and streamlines a typical user’s workflow.

Special thanks to the Knight Foundation for supporting this work with their Prototype Fund, and thanks to all who helped us squash bugs as we beta tested this redesign over the summer.

New features / bugfixes

  • New user interface!
  • Tabula now runs on port 34555 by default, preventing conflict with some software running on port 8080. To access Tabula, you now go to http://127.0.0.1:34555/ instead of http://127.0.0.1:8080/. (#322 #331)
  • Fixed issue where "copy to clipboard" output was returning bad (unquoted) data. (#315)
  • [Mac] Tabula now comes bundled with Java (Java 8u51); fixes "Legacy Java Environment (SE 6) Is Required" issue on newer versions of OSX. (#237)
  • [Mac] Fixed "…can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" message in some cases, due to using the wrong codesigning identity. (#327)

Known Issues & Caveats

  • "Export" download feature is currently broken in Chrome. #350
  • Some intermittent errors, possibly due to autodetect. (#355 #356 #358 #360) If you encounter an error while extracting, please report it to us and tell us the steps you took before the error occurred.
  • Caveat: Tabula only works on text-based PDFs (ones where you can select text). Scanned documents do not work, and we do not recommend OCR for large files unless you have a data cleaning plan since even state-of-the-art OCR software can have significant error rates.
  • _OS X Gatekeeper_: If you’re running Mac OS X 10.8 or later and get a message that says "Tabula can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" message, please let us know.

_Note_: If you’re running Mac OS X 10.8 or later and get a "Tabula can't be opened because it is from an unidentified developer" message, please let us know. Generally, you can bypass this by right-clicking or control-clicking on the app and then pressing "Open". See this GateKeeper page for more assistance — your "Allow applications downloaded from" setting should be set to "Mac App Store and identified developers" or "Anywhere."
