I want to auto generate a word document from a pdf file. First, the OCR must identify the document. Then depending on the document, I want to be able to select character "zones" where the text will differ per document. Again I want this process automated.
We have many forms in our files. From these forms, we generate a list of documents that fully represents what is in the file. In order to create an accurate documentation list from a specific file, I must manually go page by page, extracting specific information (that is in the same spot) and generate the documentation list manually. I want to automate this process.
The OCR feature in Acrobat does not provide "zone" OCR.
Server like "automation" is not supported by Acrobat (by license and by design). Acrobat is a desktop application and, while many activities can be "automated" via Acrobat JavaScript and Acrobat Actions (a feature of the "Pro" release) a warm-body is going to have to be available to keep things moving along.
From what you write it may be that your specific needs would be better served by a server grade product. For researching these remember
