uploaded_file = st.file_uploader(" pdf: ", type=[‘pdf’])

#this is not working!
    doc=pymupdf.open(stream=uploaded_file.read(),filetype="pdf")
    text=""
    try:
        for page in doc:
            text += page.get_text()
        if not text:
               st.error("No text found, PyMuPDF did not work")

        doc.close()
