OCR - Multiple PDF Files

Hi,

I've created a process that will read the contents of a PDF (using region mode) and write the values to data items. However this only works if I specify the file that I want it to open (in Chrome). How can I get it to loop through a specific folder of PDF's, read each one, and then write the values to a collection?

I've tried using the 'Get Files' function in the File Management VBO, but that doesn't seem to do anything.

Thanks!

Yes you almost came there,
using Get Files all the PDF filepaths will be loaded in to the collection and loop this collection and open pdf's one after the other.
