Convert pdf's is into structured data

[User16826987838]

Is there anything on Databricks to help read PDF (payment invoices and receipts for example) and convert it to structured data?

Several open source options. For ex Tesseract

def ocr_image(image_bytes):
 
  return pytesseract.image_to_string(Image.open(io.BytesIO(image_bytes)))

Thanks! Converting PDF format is sometimes a difficult task as not all converters provide accuracy. I want to share with you one interesting tool I recently discovered that can make your work even more efficient. I recently came across an amazing online tool https://pdfflex.com/docx-to-pdf  that allows you to convert DOCX to PDF effortlessly. All you have to do is upload your DOCX file and it will be converted in seconds. And you can easily download the pdf file.
