Hello,

I need some help with OCR.
I have an invoice in PDF and I need to read the invoce number.
What is the best way to do it?

As it's private, I sent you an email with the invoice.

Could you help me?
Thank you.

Hi Lorenzo

If you OCR this document you can all the text and their respective rects returned.

The main difficulty you will have is that this is not an easily parse-able document. For example, if the document contained:

Invoice number: 12345

Then it would be easy to locate and confidently extract.

In your case, the invoice number is below the heading, e.g.

So you will need to find the position of the heading text "Numero Documento" and then infer the invoice number by its location relative to that.
