Rename PDF files based on their content or extract content to CSV, from predefined zones. NO SERVER, 100% ON DEVICE! Your data and your privacy matter.
PDFZone provides automation based on your PDF files content.
It can automatically rename your PDF files' based on their content, from predefined zones. It can also extract the desired content to useful data (CSV). In seconds.
Give PDFZone multiple PDFs of the same type, and it will smartly extract the data you need (from predefined zones) to a CSV file.
It can also rename your PDF files according to the extracted values.
Examples of use:
- Batch rename a lot of PDF files based on their dates, provider, ... or any data of your choice in the content of each PDF.
- Suppose you want to have the total amount of your electricity invoice for every month of the last ten years. Tell PDFZone once where is the total amount, then give all your invoices (PDF) to PDFZone. The app will find the total amount for every invoice, you can then extract the results to a CSV file and use the data in the software of your choice (Excel, accounting, ...).

This is great App if you just need the same sort of information pulled out of say a water bill every month. You just have to define the fields you want like "Due Date" or "Amount" and point it at the pdfs and it will strip them right out. I was looking for something to extract info from bank/cc statements and this is not the right thing. I did get a lot of attention from the developer on stuff I was too lazy to look up in the documentation so that was much appreciated!

Not in tuitive, and chancy
Frog in the sky
I am tryubg t extact dates from abut 200 pdf files containing emails al starting with the same lines:From: SenderSubject: textDate: Month DD, YYYY. at hh:mmTo: RecipientsCc: RecipientsThe scales of the PDF files are different so that the fields appear at different absolute locations on the page. bot all DF have been OCR-ed. I made a model from the first file, that worked for a fair number of files but failed on others. I added a second model for the first file that failed and that processed a few more files. By the 6th model there were abut 20 fiels that failed, but PDFZne got stuck in an infinite loop. I removed that file to be processed by hand, even thogh it looked just like the others and managed to process about 3 more files before the app froze. Sometmes the date was extracted, but repeated in parenthesis in the ouput. E.g. "Jul 4, 2023 (July 4, 2023)". This happened starting with model 4. I have about 10 collections of such files, and would liketo find a way to process them reliably, and have the names look like:"Sent_mm-dd-yy_at_hh:mm_currenttitle"I created an other field (text) to extract hh:mm, but that worked correctly on few enogh files that I gave up and focused on the date.I cannot find any rhyme or reason for the output, other than the fact that the font size or the zom scale changes from filee to file. The documentation does not provide any suggestions. I have spent too much time on this and am considering writing my own script (Awk or equivalent)
Great software for running a real estate business!
AaronH!
For our real estate business we receive hundreds of PDF documents every month - invoices, owner statements, mortgage / lender statements the list goes on and on. This software allows us to label the names of these documents automatically in batch mode using the content it extracts from inside the actual PDF - this is a game changer and saves us countless hours every month we would otherwise be naming these files manually.I can't recommend it highly enough!

PDFZone 3 best app
Mr. SALAMA Youssef
I am an expert in Biology-Microbiology and my projects and my data are always in PDF format.Before I found difficulties in processing millions of PDFs that I have ... but currently thanks to this new version of PDFZone 3 the processing of my PDF documents becomes easy and simple. PDFZone 3 allows me to rename and label my PDFs automatically and easily, which therefore saves me more time.The PDFZone 3 application is fast and does not use my RAM and CPU of my Macbook pro.I highly recommend PDFZone 3 for each Mac OSx user.
