Ignore dotted lines
When analyzing our user feedback form, I realized that the dotted line is occasionally recognized either as "........" or "**********".
Can we train it to ignore those?
Here is an example of an empty form: https://www.ssw.com.au/ssw/standards/forms/SSWEvaluationSurvey.pdf

Analyzing forms with Fiddler
This may be obvious to many with more experience but it took me half a day to figure it out. I'm using Fiddler instead of cURL and when I was trying to call the analyze API with a file in the Request Body I was getting a 415 Unsupported Media Type. The API does not support multipart/form-data content type which is how Fiddler defaults binary files in the Request Body. The way to work around this is after selecting an "Upload file..." in the Request Body is to remove the multipart tags from the request body and change the content-type…

Structure of table data
First off, I love this tool, the key value pairs is very powerful and really solves a business need.
Having the ability to label the table elements would take this offering to the next level. If you were able to tag columns, eg. Column 1, column 2 and then the tool provides a row from the table as object...
{"fields":
…[{ "Address": {
...
},
"Name": {
...
},
"Size": {
...
}},
{ "Address": {
...
},
"Name": {
...
},
"Size": {
...
}},
{ "Address": {
...
},
"Name": {
...
},
"Size": {
...
}}]

Release date for V2 including local container support?
For planning purposes we need to know when V2 is planned to be released. We also need to use the local container version so we need to know if the release of that will be different than V2 GA. Ideally we would like to test the local V2 container prior to GA.

Label tool and form processing
We did some testing with the examples. Particularly we want to start with the recognition of invoices so we need only the payment information, amount, … We started with the .NET SDK example and the custom form recognizer model. But we are receiving to much unnecessary information. Instead we are using the sample labeling tool which helps us to tag the necessary fields. Is there a way to upload the data of the training of the labeling tool in the same way as the customer form recognizer does?

Fix .Net SDK error for Analyze method
I'm getting the following error when using the analyze method of the SDK:
AnalyzeResult result = await _formRecognizerClient.AnalyzeWithCustomModelAsync(new Guid(modelId), stream, contentType: "application/pdf");
In case of HTML form data, the multipart request must contain a document with a media type of - 'application/pdf', 'image/jpeg' or 'image/png'.
Error code: UnsupportedMediaType
Status code: 415The data in the stream is correct, it contains a small pdf file.

Make it possible to use a download of the pageResult property of the GetAnalyzeFormResult API as an input for the TrainCustomModel API
Make it possible to use the same structure of the pageResult property of the GetAnalyzeFormResult API, as an input for the TrainCustomModel API label files data structure. This would make it easier to improve the model key-value associations based on the results of the model.
I would like to update the content of the pageResult structure and re-use it in a next TrainCustomModel API call.
In the current version these are 2 different structures with similar data.1 vote -
How to label a table in a form?
In the Azure form recognizer official website "https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/services/cognitive-services/form-recognizer/" few examples have tables in the sample file. In output also we have an attribute called table in sample json. Please guide us in labeling a table in a custom layout form.
26 votesForm Recognizer discovers and extracts tables automatically. Table results are part of the pageResults section in the JSON output. If the table in the form was not discovered you can label tables a values by labeling each table cell and training with the maximum number of rows in the tables. Form Recognizer does not yet support labeling tables as tables.

How to label an electronic generated form for custom training?
After going through steps mentioned in the below source url "https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/form-recognizer/quickstarts/label-tool" we didn't get all the products tagged as expected(Refer Output.jpg).
In the output file the highlighted fields were not detected can anyone please suggest us the way to tag the data and to improve the model accuracy.
We have trained the model with 10 samples of same template in different variations.
For Example one form having 2 products in the Description table and another having 6 products and so on.
1 voteCan you please try and label 5 forms with the maximum number of rows you would like to extract ? For example all labeled data have 6 rows and when analyzing extract any number of rows forms.

Prebuilt receipts doesn't recognize logo'd merchant names
If a receipt only has the merchant logo and not the merchant name on a receipt, the prebuilt receipt model returns nothing for the MerchantName.

Support well known tax forms as pre-built form
Start supporting well known tax forms i.e. w2, 1099 forms etc as pre-built forms so users don't have to create custom model for it and train them.
