Hi @raju_alakuntla

You can use the read pdf with OCR activity and store in a String Variable.
Use regular expression to extract the Name and DOB from it.

Note - We are using OCR, because we are extracting the data from the scanned documents.

Hope it helps!!

Hi @raju_alakuntla ,
You can use documentOCR-> get all text in it
use regex to get datetime format dd/MM/yyyy

In READ PDF WITH OCR Activity:
USE UiPath Document OCR

Regex for DOB:
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match(Out_Pdf,“\d{2}.\d{2}.\d{4}”).Value

Regex for Name:
System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Match(Out_Pdf,“(?<=LERARRCT4.)\w+\s\w+”).Value

I am working on a web Portal, When I click on the document it will navigate to a new tab where the PAN card can be visible. What should I pass in the “File Name” section in the “Read PDF with OCR”

If your pan card is in pdf format file. Then you can pass the path of pan card pdf file in the File Name option.

If you want to scrap from the website it’s not possible to use the Read PDF with OCR activity. In this case you have to use the get text activity to scrap the data in the website.

Hope you understand!!

is the pan card in the pdf format?

its in pdf format only. But we are not downloading the documents. Its opening in the new tab in the browser in pdf format only.
