Document Understanding Activities
Last updated Oct 8, 2024
Read XPS files
The example after explains how to read an
.xps

- Drag a Sequence container in the
Workflow Designer.
- Create the variables from the following table:
Table 1. Variables to be created Variable Name
Variable Type
Default Value
ExactString
String
N/A ExtractWithOCRString
String
N/A Note: Add your.xps
files to the project directory in order to be able to run the entire process from the same place.
- Create the variables from the following table:
- Drag a Read XPS Text activity inside the
Sequence container.
- In the Properties panel, add the
expression
"XPSTextDemo.xps"
in the FileName field. - Add the value
"All"
in the Range field. - Add the variable
ExactString
in the Text field.
