ObjectID in the structuredData.json of the Extract API vs. ObjectID in the AutoTag excel report

Question

Hi,

I've been working with the Adobe PDF Services API and ran in a peculiar clash of terms. We are trying to cross reference the contents of the structuredData.json of the Extract API and the AutoTag xlsx report. They both contain ObjectID's. However, they do not refer to the same objects or even overlap in some cases.

I have an autotag report with a list of figures. The ObjectID's of the figures don't even exist in the structuredData.json.

What is the difference between these two ways of looking at the content of the PDF we are manipulating vis the Services API.

Much thanks!

Gabriel

As you've noted, the ObjectIDs are unrelated. To cross-reference the xlsx report and the JSON, you'll need to locate the /Figure elements that have filePath properties and match the rounded Bounds[0] and Bounsds[3] to the Bbox column x and y, respectively.
