This Python script allows you to extract all URLs from a given PDF file and generate a new PDF with clickable hyperlinks. It detects URLs starting with http://, https://, or www. and cleans them for formatting.

• GUI-based file picker (using tkinter)
• Scans the full content of a PDF
• Supports links starting with http://, https://, or www.
• Outputs a clean, clickable PDF with extracted links
• Logs which pages have links and how many were found

• Python 3.7+
• Libraries:
  • PyMuPDF (fitz)
  • fpdf
  • tkinter (built-in)

Install dependencies:

pip install pymupdf fpdf

1. Clone or download this repository.
2. Run the script:

   python extract_urls_with_http_https.py

3. Select a PDF when prompted.
4. Wait for the scan to complete.
5. A new PDF file will be created in the same directory with _extracted_links.pdf appended to its name.

The output is a simple PDF with blue clickable hyperlinks like:

http://example.com
https://secure.site/login
www.website.org/page
