Re-extract an overridden value in Adobe Acrobat Analyzer

Re-extract an overridden value for a file to revert it back to the extracted value.

Re-extract when you no longer want to use a manual override for a particular file, and you want the attribute value to return to the extracted result.

Before you begin

• You have access to the collection that contains the file.
• The file has at least one manually overridden attribute value.

Re-extract the attribute value from the file.

What happens after you re-extract a value

• Re-extracting replaces your manually added value with a newly extracted value. 
• The attribute returns to the extracted value.
• If other attributes on the file still have overrides, they remain overridden until you explicitly re-extract those values.

When to re-extract a value

• You want to remove a manual correction and return to the extracted value.
• You corrected the wrong attribute or entered the wrong override value.
• You updated the extraction settings and want the file’s value to reflect the latest extraction behavior.
