Question/topic for discussion:
Can the manual table creation (pdf -> csv) be simplified? This could be great as this would mean the code would be generalisable. For example, this may help in addressing creating potential workflows for CPRD Gold not just Aurum #12 .

Tasks:

  • To look into PDF table extraction tools which can assist this process
  • Are these tools flexible and how accurate are they? If they are prone to error and take time to validate maybe better to leave as is
  • If it works, maybe consider testing on Gold data?
