Form Recognizer: how to analyze a form already split in multiple files (each per page) from the same multipage form

Question

Hello, I have a form to analyze provided in three .jpg files, corrisponding each to a single page of a multipage form. I was wondering if is there possible to feed Form Recognizer with these three separated files to check if they match a label based model and extract data from them. Alternatively I was considering to merge those jpg in a single pdf with a java lib, but this would be the last chance. Thank You

@-FrancescoFucci- Thanks, If you are extracting only text, tables and selection marks from documents you should use layout, if you also need to extract key value pairs you can train a custom model or use a pre-built (Invoice, Receipts, Business Cards).

Layout results (text, tables and selection marks) are included in all the Analyze outputs (custom and pre-built) in the readResults (text) and pageResults (tables) of the JSON output.

• Layout – extract text, tables selection marks no training required
• Pre-built – Invoice, Receipts, Business Cards – extract values of interest from these type of documents
• Custom – Extract key value pairs trained on your own documents
All of the above will also include the text, tables and selection marks in the results.
