Hi ,

I am looking at creating searchable pdf using Azure document Intelligence

I see this article about possible implementation .

https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/ai-azure-ai-services-blog/generate-searchable-pdfs-with-azure-form-recognizer/ba-p/3652024

Is there any API Endpoint in Document Intelligence which takes pdf as input and returns a searchable pdf as output.

    Hello @Shreyas Rastogi

    Azure Document Intelligence doesn't provide a direct API endpoint for converting PDFs into searchable PDFs. The process, as described in the article, involves using Azure Form Recognizer along with a custom Python script.

    To achieve this you need an Azure AI Search Index and create a Vector Index to search within the PDFs
