PDFminer outputs unreadable text during conversion from PDF to TXT

[Pedroski55]

I searched a lot, but I can't find an answer.

The PDF has 2 embedded fonts. They are both types of Times Roman, which is a common font. The PDF was made on MacOS.

Maybe if you Python it on an apple computer, you will get the correct output.

I tried saving as binary, then opening but that did not work:

with pymupdf.open(path2pdf) as doc:  # open document
    text = chr(12).join([page.get_text() for page in doc])
    # write as a binary file to support non-ASCII characters
    pathlib.Path(path2pdf + ".txt").write_bytes(text.encode())

with open(path2text, encoding="utf-8") as f:
    text = f.read()

Like I said, the PDF displays correctly, so the information must be in there! How to extract it??
