PDF Table

PDF (Portable Document Format) is a file format developed by Adobe to present documents consistently across all platforms and software. Our converter uses advanced OCR and AI technology to extract data from PDF files and convert it to structured formats.

Technical Details

PDF files can contain text, images, hyperlinks, form fields, and embedded fonts. They maintain their formatting regardless of the device or software used to view them. Our AI-powered OCR system can recognize text, tables, and structured data within PDF documents.

Advantages

  • May be larger in file size than source documents
  • Complex structure can make data extraction challenging
  • OCR accuracy depends on document quality and structure
Avro

Avro is a row-based data serialization system developed within Apache's Hadoop project. It provides rich data structures and a compact, fast binary data format.

Advantages

  • Compact binary serialization
  • Schema definition included with the data
  • Support for schema evolution
  • Dynamic typing and code generation

Limitations

  • Not human-readable without special tools
  • Less widely supported than formats like JSON or CSV
  • More complex to implement than simpler formats
