Computer Vision and PDFs with different layouts

Help
1

Hello,
I am working on automating data extraction for various PDFs with different layouts. Is UiPath Computer vision capable of fetching specified fields like Date, Amount , etc. ?

@ykuzin,

Yes it can fetch details.

I automated process like fetching details from PDF invoice and enter into SAP application. For this first I read PDF files with read PDF activity and then used string manipulations and reg expression to fetch details. If you want you can try this way also.

Hi,
Nice one! :+1: Were invoices of fixed format or did they have different layouts? Case when, for instance, Date is not fixed to certain position.
Thanks

@ykuzin,

It’s different layout and but that is not a problem to me. I am finding index of those positions and fetching values. I did string manipulations here.
