Hello,

I am using SAP build process automation to extract the pdf data using an OPEN PDF method sequentially. After this I am using GET TEXT activity to get the data. GET TEXT is returning me every word with the dimensions. WIDTH, TOP, HEIGHT, LEFT with index and page. In my case, it's extracting the data but dimensions are wrong also it reads randomly. Sometimes they are negative depicts particular word is out of pdf page.

however Sometimes it reads them properly.

Any solution to this problem.

Regards,

Prasad

Hello,

To extract information from structured and unstructured business documents such as custom document types, you can use the Document Information Extraction service : https://help.sap.com/docs/PROCESS_AUTOMATION/a331c4ef0a9d48a89c779fd449c022e7/b911099cac4f4520a7780f... .

You can look at this tutorial about how to create an automation to extract data: https://developers.sap.com/tutorials/spa-dox-create-automation.html

Thank you !

I have used DOX already. It gives me right dimensions but does not extract text perfectly. So, I tried using OPEN PDF where extraction is proper but dimensions are sometimes wrong. (Not always wrong)
