Invoice Uploads and OCR
When submitting invoices for automated processing using Procurify's Optical Character Recognition (OCR) feature, the following file types are supported:
PDF: This is the preferred format for invoices. PDFs preserve the original invoice formatting and ensure the highest accuracy for data extraction by the OCR engine.
JPG, PNG, TIFF: These image formats are also supported. However, the quality of the image directly impacts the OCR's ability to extract information. High-resolution images are strongly recommended for optimal results.
