In this tutorial video, the presenter, J, demonstrates how to extract text from a PDF file using Python. He aims to convert lecture notes from a two-page PDF into a text file. Starting with a Python editor, he instructs viewers to create a new Python file and utilizes the PyPDF2 library, which can be installed via the command `pip install PyPDF2`. J explains the need to import the PDF file reader and writer classes and shows how to create a variable for the file path. He mentions that since the Python file and the PDF are in the same folder, viewers can provide just the filename to access the PDF for text extraction.
