Technical Specifications & Engine Capabilities
| Specification | Implementation Details |
|---|---|
| Supported Document Types | Image-only PDFs, flattened documents, rasterized printouts, locked PDF layers |
| Extraction Pipeline | High-accuracy Tesseract OCR with coordinate bounding box grouping |
| Output Spreadsheets | Microsoft Excel (.xlsx), Comma-Separated Values (.csv) |
| Numeric Formatting | Automatic detection of currency symbols, decimal points, and percentages into Excel numeric types |
| Privacy Framework | TLS 1.3 transfer, zero permanent storage, automatic 30-minute auto-purge TTL |
Document Layout Handling & Extraction Behavior
Different document structures require specialized parsing logic to prevent broken rows and misaligned columns:
| Document Layout | Processing Method | Expected Spreadsheet Output |
|---|---|---|
| Non-Selectable Flattened PDF Pages | Direct raster layer rasterization & OCR token extraction | Converts pixel text into fully selectable, editable Excel cells |
| Multi-Column Price Lists & Catalogs | Vertical gutter clustering and X-coordinate projection | Maintains strict column separation between descriptions and prices |
| Mixed Fonts and Bold Row Headers | Font weight & size threshold analysis | Detects section headers and styles them with distinct bold formatting |
| Compressed JPEG Artifacts in PDFs | Bilateral filtering to preserve character edges | Minimizes character misrecognition caused by lossy PDF compression |
Common Conversion Challenges & Troubleshooting
1. Distinguishing Native Digital PDFs from Image-Only PDFs
Cause: If you cannot highlight or copy text with your mouse in your PDF reader, the document is an image-only PDF.
Solution: ConverCell automatically detects image-only PDFs and routes them through our OCR pipeline without requiring manual settings.
2. Numeric Characters Recognized as Letters (e.g. 'O' instead of '0')
Cause: Degraded fonts or heavy image compression can confuse similar glyphs.
Solution: Our OCR pipeline applies contextual dictionary filtering to enforce strict digit recognition inside numeric and currency columns.
3. Rotated Pages Inside Multi-Page PDF Batches
Cause: Some pages scanned upside-down or sideways will cause OCR to misread lines.
Solution: Ensure all pages in your PDF are rotated right-side up before uploading, or utilize our local PDF editor to reorient pages.
