Hello, I would like to read a PDF and pack the content into a JSON file. Which node do I have to use for this?
Hi @mac338 ![]()
Just to make sure - since you mentioned OCR
Are you looking for optical character recognition / does your PDF have pictures of text? If that’s what you’re looking for, n8n can’t do this directly, but AWS Textract can (and does have a node within n8n to use). Mindee can also do this for some documents.
If I’m off base, can you provide an example of what you’re looking for instead? ![]()
If your PDF contains actual text instead of images of text like I suspected, the Read PDF node will do the job ![]()
