[AimanNishat]

Guys, Need help on how can I convert PDF file to XML.

Hi Aiman,

Would opening the PDF in Word, and then having Word save the document in .XML format do the trick?

------------------------------
Happy coding!

Hi @AimanNishat ,

One way of achieving this is by leveraging code stage in blue prism.

1.  Makes sure below namespaces are imported in your object

Imports System
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports System.Text
Imports Bytescout.PDFExtractor
Imports System.Diagnostics

2. Call below code in your code stage

            Dim extractor As New XMLExtractor()
            extractor.RegistrationName = "demo"
            extractor.RegistrationKey = "demo"
            ' Load sample PDF document
            extractor.LoadDocumentFromFile("test.pdf")
            extractor.SaveXMLToFile("output.XML")

Hi @Saumitra_KumarS 

Did you place the dll file at  location "C:\Program Files\Blue Prism Limited\Blue Prism Automate" ?
