Hi @Ibrar Sakhi Khan , Thanks for using Microsoft Q&A Platform.

Yes, selection marks are supported in the Azure Form Recognizer.

Please refer to this form recognizer quick start guide to get started with: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/studio-overview?view=form-recog-3.0.0#get-started-using-form-recognizer-studio

The file formats supported by Form Recognizer models are listed below: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-read?view=form-recog-3.0.0#input-requirements

You can learn more about the model's overview here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-model-overview?view=form-recog-3.0.0#model-overview

The models that support selection marks are:

• Pre-built general document model: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-general-document?view=form-recog-3.0.0#data-extraction
• Pre-built layout model: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-layout?view=form-recog-3.0.0#data-extraction
• W2-from model: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-w2?view=form-recog-3.0.0
• Custom models (both Neural and template): https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/applied-ai-services/form-recognizer/concept-custom?view=form-recog-3.0.0&tabs=extraction%2Cclassification#custom-model-extraction-summary

FYI, you can use a pre-built model or train a custom model specific to your needs and use cases. Form Recognizer can be used with the REST API as well as the Python, C#, Java, and JavaScript SDKs.

I used pre-built layout model in Form Recognizer Studio, and here is an example screenshot. I hope you're looking for something similar.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

Vasavi
