Improve text mining for True PDF

Lack of tools in Alteryx to extract data from True PDF. The current set of tools (Computer Vision) only allow us to extract data from images which is not ideal for True PDF documents in terms of accuracy.

Hi @Haokun

 

We are launching a brand new tool in the upcoming Intelligence Suite version 22.3 called PDF to Text that is optimized for system-generated (or "True") PDFs.

 

It's currently available in Limited Availability for Intelligence Suite customers only: https://help.alteryx.com/20221/designer/pdf-text but should be out in General Availability soon.
