pip install pdfminer 错误（Windows 上的 python 2）

Question

当我在 Windows Server 2012 上使用 Python 2.7 运行 pip install pdfminer 时，出现以下错误：

Running setup.py install for pdfminer ... error

这曾经可以工作......我不知道如何解决这个问题。

最近pdfminer dropped the support for Python 2。

您可以尝试使用pdfminer.six，这是一个支持 Python 2 和 3 的 pdfminer 的分支。但是，对 Python 2 的支持将在 2020 年 1 月停止，所以它只会给你买几个月.
