Hey
I am trying to convert a pdf to text.
I can already set up the PDf filename. However, I am not able to convert the PDF to text.
I am using "node-red-contrib-pdfjs" but I am not getting any output.
What am I doing wrong?
I create several PDFs according to the given username. At a later time I would like to read the most recent PDF from the specified user. The path to the file is correct.
I am using an NR server on Windows.
Thank you!
