I want to parse/extract content stored in pdf and docx files which are stored in hdfs. The python libraries available (like docx2txt, pdfminer) are not working in the hdfs. These files are giving a binary output if I try to read with the native hdfs libraries. Are there any python libraries which can do such task? Or a way in which we can convert the binary files to extract the data.

Check out pyoo
It's some binding to OpenOffice / LibreOffice.
The library can be used for generating documents in various formats – including Microsoft Excel 97 (.xls), Microsoft Excel 2007 (.xlsx) and PDF.
Hope this disadvantage isn't huge problem:
On the other hand it needs a running process of a office suite application which is significant overhead.
