Xtractor 8.1.0 enables users to easily specify criteria such as words, invoice data, image formats, location of interest, and other pieces of data through regular expressions like social security numbers, phone numbers, and more. Once the PDF data is extracted, the content immediately becomes available for automation, editing, indexing, and other digital transformation needs.
