Hubdoc - Extract description
Once the file is uploaded to Hubdoc, it effectively becomes a JPEG once at the review screen, this means you can not copy paste or grab contents from within the document and you will have to either open up the PDF on a separate screen or edit it within Xero.
It would be great if the description could also be extracted - OR allow the document to be copied/stay a PDF to be able to copy. This will reduce human errors when entering data. Thank you.

This is very critical, and would make shift for Hubdoc, as accuracy of invoice description are most important when posting an entry. Uploading hundreds of documents in Hubdoc and visit one by one uploaded entry in Xero to manually change the incorrect description provided by machine learning is hectic and cumbersome

Extracting invoice description from PDF invoices when uploading multiple invoices in pdf format. I have more than 100 invoices in pdf format, If you have more than 100 invoices in pdf with different invoices descriptions and want the draft entries in xero to have the actual original description from the pdf invoice. Hubdoc would be required to be developed with this feature and go extra mile than producing description based on historical data extraction of similar documents. Sometime machine learning based on history would result top wrong output, so data extraction by machine reading on PDF is more correct.

This would be very useful. Currently have to download the file to be able to copy the information.
