How feasible it is to read and extract particular information from multiple PDF formats thru a single bot?

Hello Folks,

We have a requirement to fetch supplier information from invoices but the PDF comes in different format and as explained by PDF connector topic it is not possible to read different PDF files with different formats, please help us to get that.

You do have the option to read the entire text of the PDF and output that into whatever parsing logic you would create to handle the various formats. Robotic automation works best when you can specify a particular set of formats and that is what the PDF Connector works for.

We'd prefer it if you saw us at our best.
