Hi,

Looking for some suggestion / solution. We are on Baan 5 with porting set 8 and service pack 28.

We receive POs from our customers in form of PDF file, the pdf files contains searchable text. It's not an image. We are looking for a sol. to extract this data so that we can create Sales Order in baan.

So i am looking for :
a) Recommendation, as to how i can extract the data out of pdf, if someone already developed some sol. please share your thoughts on this.

b) Possibly a third party sol. recommendation which already does this task.

c) Not so important, if the sol. can somehow play with pdf files that have image instead of searchable text that would be great. Again this point is not of high priority.

fyi, we already have required BOIs to create Sales Order via Open World.

Hello Sir,

Using third party ( java - iTextSharp - pdfreader) data can be read from pdf.

don't know this will work for you or not, but can try with this.
