Image to Text Tool - Truncated Values and Unwanted Characters

Manav_Sehra

Hello all, 

I have a set of workflows that read-in data from fixed templated PDF files on a weekly basis and subsequently convert them to strings (these values are comprised of text and numeric values). We have identified an issue in which the number 77 is either truncated, or has additional undesired characters (please see the images below). In addition, a similar issue arises when the tool attempts to read-in either the number 71 or 11 – in either case, the numbers are truncated and we are left with 7 and 1”, respectively. I have browsed the Alteryx discussion forums, but was unable to identify any cases similar to mine. I attempted adjusting the annotation ranges in the Image Template tool but that did not help. Is there a way to ensure that the values are read-in correctly each time? Images of both the PDF sample and the Alteryx output are attached to this post. 

Any help is appreciated. 

Thank you, 

Manav
