PDF tables to JSON

Turn the tables in a PDF into JSON: one record per table with the header and every row as an array, empty cells kept as null so each value stays in its column. Ready for databases, spreadsheets and AI pipelines. This example reads the first pages of the IRS federal income tax withholding tables (Publication 15-T). No API key.
