First install PDF Activities from Package Manager.
After that you can use Read PDF activity, and place that information inside a String variable.
After that you can use Regex and String manipulation to extract the information

Since all of these are of same Date format, you could split them using .Split(" "C) String method, and then select the 4th element (at position 3) of array

i save the output to variable name ‘ExtractedDate’

i don’t understand the split method
