Hai @Mahesh1112,

For reading multiple pdf files you can put all the pdf files on one folder and then you can read all the pdf file by using select folder activity., and then for reading each pdf file you need to use for each file activity inside that activity you can perform the action however you wants.,

Hi @Mahesh1112,
Use Read pdf with Ocr and provide the pdf path and use extract text with Ocr.
Repeat this step with pdf files of different format

@Manesh1112, how much success did you find with this approach? How many different formats are you dealing with? I’m just thinking whether the alternative of using a cognitive data capture service (like rossum.ai, infrrd.ai or smacc io) wouldn’t be a better fit for you - e.g. Data extraction from invoices - Rossum and UiPath | Rossum
