PDF Data Scraping Fail

[Son_Suu]

Hello everyone, I try to use data scraping from one pdf document.
However, I only get the top 3 details of 15 details from the pdf.
Please give me some advice to solve it.
Thanks.

Hi

Welcome to uipath forum

Have a view on this for multiple ideas with sample workflows

PDF Table extraction

Hi All, The above approach fails in some of PDF files. Can I use document understanding for pulling the data from multiple pdf pages i.e. banking statement? Table page is not fixed? Is it possible with DU?? or go with ABBYY Flexi capture?? Need expert advice here. See the example in my this thread. Regards Anand

Cheers @Son_Suu

I try to use data scraping from one pdf document.

Hi @Son_Suu ,

Do we have to use Data Scraping Wizard for Extracting the details?

As a First try, have we used Read PDF Text and Checked the Data that was Extracted. If we are able to do the operations in Background instead of UI Activities, it could be much faster and an efficient solution.

Let us know if we are able to read the data using the Normal Read PDF Text Activity and also let us know what are the type of fields to be extracted. Is it Table data or normal fields?

Try This :
→ Use "read Pdf text " activity .
→ save the output in the “write text file” activity.
