Automated PDF Page Extraction Workflow
detail.loadingPreview
This workflow automatically extracts specific pages from a PDF document. It's designed to streamline processes that require targeted data retrieval from larger PDF files.
About This Workflow
This n8n workflow automates the process of extracting specific pages from a PDF file. It begins with a manual trigger, allowing you to initiate the process on demand. The workflow then fetches a PDF document from a specified URL using an HTTP Request node. Crucially, it leverages a custom PDF Toolkit node to extract a defined range of pages (pages 2-3 in this example) from the retrieved PDF. This is ideal for scenarios where you need to isolate and process specific sections of a document, saving manual effort and ensuring accuracy.
Key Features
- On-Demand PDF Extraction: Initiate the process whenever needed with a simple manual trigger.
- Remote PDF Fetching: Automatically download PDF files from any accessible URL.
- Targeted Page Extraction: Precisely extract a defined range of pages from your documents.
- Customizable Page Ranges: Easily adjust the
pageRangeparameter to extract different sets of pages.
How To Use
- Manual Trigger: Start the workflow by clicking the 'Test workflow' button on the manual trigger node.
- HTTP Request Node: Configure the
urlparameter with the direct link to your PDF file. - PDF Toolkit Node: In the 'Extract Pages From PDF1' node, set the
pageRangeparameter to the desired page numbers (e.g., '2-3' for pages 2 and 3). Ensure thefield_nameis set to your desired output key (defaulted to 'data' here). - Credentials: Make sure your CustomJS API credentials are correctly set up and linked to the PDF Toolkit node.
