Document Understanding - Split pdf/Image before digitize

I’m passing a pdf document to DU framework & it has 3 pages.
The data I need is always on the first page So when I use Extract PDF Range before digitize , its throwing error (Extract PDF Page Range: The process cannot access the file ‘File’ because it is being used by another process).
How do we fix this? and when is the correct phase to split the file & pass only one page to digitize

@Ana_Patricia

Can you show you workflow…

And after the extraction can you check in task manager if any acrobat related processes are active…

Then try to use kill process to end those before sending to data extraction

cheers

no its not after extraction, I need to pass only one page to the digitize stage itself.
I tried keeping right after get transaction item but still the same issue.

@Ana_Patricia

Please try giving a different file name for the extracted one…That should solve the issue. As of now you are trying to save the extracted one to the same file

cheers

Without creating new file cant we store the split page in run time memory & pass it on? I dont want to create another file & delete it in the end

@Ana_Patricia

I don’t think in memory you have such option…You have to create a file and delete it at the end or after processing

cheers
