Novak

Hello All, Was wondering if it is somehow possible to alter this PDF Reader OCR tool to be able to read multiple PDF files out of a single folder & output each read into a different cell into an Excel Workbook? (https://gallery.alteryx.com/#!app/PDF-Input--Text-and-Image-/5be5ec8d0462d71ffce6deaa)

This will work perfectly when you are using Non-Admin version of Alteryx as it install R packages during run time.

I am working in 2021.1 and it is working fine after installing Non-Admin Alteryx Predictive Tools (RNonAdminInstall_2021.1)

But you can run it on other versions as well after installing R Packages (pdftools, tesseract, Rcpp) on your system.
