Is there any Software out there which can convert a *.pdf file into Excel?

I have a quite large Pricelist in pdf Format from a local supplier and I need to work on the pricing before I send it to a prospective Customer – I know I could simply print it out and then Scan it into Excel but it contains quite a number of photographs and detail / resolution will be lost if I do that.

yes and not. you can convert pdf into doc file - images, text and layout. But cannot convert data into excel as numbers, currency and other values.

I suggest pdf2doc.exe - look at download.com or simple google...

well known problem - convert supplier pricelist, add your markups and remove supplier contact info...

good luck :-)

I use Eprint which I found very useful.

I am not on my usual computer at moment but from memory it will convert to 240 different file types

www.eprintdriver.com should get you there

It is VERY simple to use.

converting from any document to pdf is very easy, loads of free apps but the reverse is very difficult. i dont think u can convert pdf to excel or word doc maintaining the pictures/layout. text extraction is easy but wont solve yr purpose.

however there r some pdf editing tools available...google for them i cant remember any names right now...but i feel if u can edit the pdf files directly it should solve yr purpose...

Yes you can do this if you have basic VB skills.....

Adobe offer COM components and an SDK to expose the PDF DOM.

There is also a library called pdflib that can do this.

OK , I am back on my computer now.

It is called Lead Tools Eprint and will convert FROM PDF to 140 different file formats

www.eprintdriver.com for a trial version

It will do PDF to MS Word

I have used "pdf2text" from here: http://www.verypdf.com/pdf2txt/pdf2txt.htm but I think I'll have a look at Thetyim's eprint - it looks really good

I don't understand why you don't just edit the pdf file with Acrobat (not the reader, the full software) ?

Version 6 gave loads of problems

Version 7 have you seen the price tag ?

Version 7 have you seen the price tag ?

120 bahts, like every software

First convert the .pdf into .doc and then import the .doc into excel.

If Acrobat 6 doesn't work, you have to use that Lead Tools eprint program ...

BTW Software is only 80 baht per CD ....

Version 7  have you seen the price tag ?
