Extract Text

  1. On the Action tab, select Extract.
  2. To extract short text, such as a product name or a price, extract as Only Text.

    This extracts the text between the tags.

  3. To extract longer text with sections, headings, and so on, you can select as plain text. If you want the text to appear close to how it appears in a browser, extract the text as Structured Text.
  4. To extract with special markup, such as brackets surrounding the headings, select Structured Text.

    Structured Text has rudimentary support for special markup.

  5. If the markup requirements cannot be fulfilled using the Structured Text option, select Advanced Structured Text.

    This option allows you to set mappings from the HTML tags into your proprietary markup.
