How to find a fixed starting position in PDF when the format is not fixed

Hi, I have an issue regarding on how to find a starting position in the PDF file.
Background: I am trying to extract Identity Card information like name, identity number, date of birth etc in my pdf. My PDF is a scanned document which can’t select an individual element.

I wanted to find a particular phrase “REPUBLIC OF SINGAPORE” as the starting position to start extracting my specific elements. Is there any possible way where I could find the position as I can’t select element by element? I have tried to scrap the information using Read PDF OCR (Tesseract) but the information seems to be inaccurate for different samples.

Please provide me with some guidance as I am really new to UiPath! Thank you.
