+# Format Plugin for PDF Table Reader
+One of the most annoying tasks is when you are working on a data science
project and you get data that is in a PDF file. This plugin endeavours to
enable you to query data in
+ PDF tables using Drill's SQL interface.
+
+## Data Model
+Since PDF files generally are not intended to be queried or read by machines,
mapping the data to tables and rows is not a perfect process. The PDF reader
does support
+provided schema.
