PDF to Text tool

[Anasalter]

I am trying to extract text from pdf but when i am connecting the PDF to text tool with the directory where pdf are present i am getting the errors as shown below.

Hi @Anasalter,

I have not got that much experience with this tool, but from the error text: "Unsupported file types" have you made sure that all the paths you are passing to the tool are in fact PDF?

EDIT:

I see that the tool documentation says you can pass directories to it as well. So maybe if there is another folder in the list, you are passing it will also try to read that folder.

Agreed with @Mathias_Nielsen - I would add *.pdf as a specifier in your directory tool to ensure only PDFs are read in
