How Factur-X XML Extraction Works
Upload Your Factur-X PDF
Drag and drop a Factur-X or ZUGFeRD PDF. We detect the embedded XML attachment automatically.
Parse & Extract
The embedded CII XML is extracted from the PDF/A-3 container. If no XML is found, our AI generates one from the invoice content.

Why Extract XML from Factur-X?
Factur-X invoices embed structured XML inside a standard PDF — but many accounting systems can only process the raw XML data. Extracting the XML lets you automate data import, eliminate manual entry, and integrate invoice data directly into your ERP or financial workflows. Whether you're archiving, validating, or feeding data into a pipeline, the extracted XML gives you machine-readable access to every field in the invoice.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is Factur-X XML extraction?
Factur-X PDFs contain an embedded XML file (factur-x.xml) with structured invoice data. This tool extracts that XML attachment from the PDF so you can process, archive, or integrate it into your systems.
What if my PDF has no embedded XML?
If the uploaded PDF does not contain an embedded Factur-X XML attachment, our AI engine will read the invoice content, map it to the EN 16931 data model, and generate a compliant CII XML document for you.
What XML format is returned?
The extracted XML follows the UN/CEFACT CII (Cross Industry Invoice) format — the same syntax used inside Factur-X and ZUGFeRD files and one of the two official syntaxes of the EN 16931 European standard.
Is the extracted XML validated?
When XML is generated via AI extraction, it is validated against EN 16931 Schematron business rules before delivery. Embedded XML that already exists in the PDF is returned as-is.
