Accounting & Tax Document Challenges

Invoice processing requires accurate data extraction

Tax documents have strict formatting requirements

Client statements need personalization at scale

Financial data must be properly protected

Use Cases

Invoice Processing

Extract data from invoices and populate accounting systems.

const invoice = await PDFDancer.open('vendor_invoice.pdf');
const vendor = await invoice.selectTextLinesMatching(/Vendor:\s*(.+)/).getText();
const amount = await invoice.selectTextLinesMatching(/Total:\s*\$([\d,]+\.\d{2})/).getText();
const invoiceNum = await invoice.selectTextLinesMatching(/Invoice #:\s*(.+)/).getText();

Client Statement Generation

Generate personalized client statements with account activity.

const statement = await PDFDancer.open('statement_template.pdf');
await statement.replaceText('{{CLIENT_NAME}}', client.name);
await statement.replaceText('{{PERIOD}}', reportingPeriod);
await statement.replaceText('{{BALANCE}}', formatCurrency(balance));
// Populate transaction table
for (const tx of transactions) {
  await statement.addTableRow(tx.date, tx.description, formatCurrency(tx.amount));
}

Tax Document Redaction

Redact sensitive information from tax documents for sharing.

const taxDoc = await PDFDancer.open('tax_return.pdf');
await taxDoc.allPages().selectTextLinesMatching(/SSN:\s*\d{3}-\d{2}-\d{4}/)
  .forEach(line => line.redact('***-**-****'));
await taxDoc.allPages().selectTextLinesMatching(/Account #:\s*\d+/)
  .forEach(line => line.redact('Account #: [REDACTED]'));
