Hi All,

    I have a task and I could see a way to approach this but i do not know how to ,what i am trying to do is this:
I want to make a form recogniser and then extract text from the fields inside the forms,the form are in the form of scanned pdf's and i do not know the forms or the fields beforehand only knows about the form name .
I want to scan the pdf and convert it to text and then search for the form name and check if I have a predefined template for that form type if not then I have to somehow get the location of all the fields as I do not have the required fields for a form type,and make a template for future use with the same form type and extract the data of the fields to json. I could not find a way to make a template on the go for a new form type . Guidance in to the right direction will be helpful.

Thanks in advance.
Rahul.

You can try with uzn files. See https://jsoma.github.io/kull/#/

See https://github.com/jsoma/tesseract-uzn

Basically uzn files predefine zones on the page and then each of those would be recognized
