Hi @Anand_Designer ,

What do you mean by corrupted file?

If you are expecting 10 columns of data from that PDF, if you are not getting all then do not move the file to the successful folder.

If you are getting all the expected parameters, then if the file has all data then move it to success folder.

corrupted file mean… it is not delete manually and copy paste into another folder i tried many times but i could not do.
.so i consider it is may be error file and corrupted file.

Check this below workflow I have used VB.net code to check the pdf corruption, @Anand_Designer Uipath_PdfCorruptCheck.xaml (5.3 KB) and Download the package - Syncfusion.Pdf.Net.Core from manage packages.
Hope this may help you :slight_smile:
