Extract Data From Non-editable PDF files using Power Automate desktop

Posted on by 96

Hi,

 

I have some non-editable PDF files and want to get data from the file, how can I achieve it? 

I tried to use "Extract images from PDF" action in PAD and using OCR to get data, but it failed to convert to image, seems that wording part is not image, and it cannot editable. so How can I get data, thanks in advance

    Hello @zxky18 

     

    Try “Recognize text in an image or a PDF document”

    Sorry @zxky18

     

    I missed the "Desktop"-Part. I moved your thread to the "Power Automate Desktop" Forum (This split up this thread and your last post, sorry about that as well).

     

    Hopefully some of the Desktop people can help you.
